The following brand new DC14' has been taken from inside the Mooloolaba Outrigger Canoe Club in the last week. Please be on the look out for this board. It is yellow with red features on it.

This OC paddler bought this board 3 months ago and was hoping to do her first ever race next weekend at Xcel.

Please be on the look out !! Much appreciated.

Sue

Let's not let this one go.

Looks like they are having similar issues over in the states. This was posted recently by Wet Feet in HI.

2 Gerry Lopez Boards Stolen in Honolulu. Please be on the lookout for these 2 race boards stolen yesterday. They are 12-6 and 14 and have a clear glass jobs with the Lopez logo on the deck. They are in Riviera Padlle Surf Bags and were stolen off the top of Herbie's car by cutting a cable lock. They are ONE OF A KIND!!!!!!

One downside of the popularity of the sport. I remember when I was a kid I had my first Wally Windsurfer stolen of the roof of my car. I was shattered. Couldnt afford a new one

Time to lock them down properly I guess

Hope that DC turns up, Sue!

It's been a little while now... There's a small chance it could have snuck out of the country by now. Have you put the message up on The Zone?

No I haven't put anything up on the zone. I haven't looked at that forum for over a year. I'm thinking you are right about it being possibly out of the country by now.

There was a possible sighting of this board being paddled out of the Mooloolah river very early in the morning on Tuesday 17th May. Maybe it was placed on a boat/yacht ?? Could be in Indo by now ??

any news on this one ?

I did a race today on the North Shore of Oahu with 358 other SUP paddlers and 162 prone paddlers. Saw the board from over here that looks SO much like my friends missing one. I had to look 4 times at it and even took photos to compare to the one in this thread once I got back to the house this arv. Looked so much like it. Close but no cigar !!

i think alain has left that board over there. gavin raced at the bop

cheers

no this one I brought it myself to hawai in november and it stays at a friend's house on the north shore. That's the one gavin paddled a the last BOP in waikiki
