Hey just letting any Dawson ave sailors know that there have been a few stingrays hanging around the launch area lately, probably always been there just never seen them until now.
Anyway was talking to a fellow windsurfer yesterday and he showed me a big hole in his foot from stepping on one recently!
Not nice Im told with a trip to hospital and morphine for the pain!
So drag your feet around instead of stepping is probably a good idea!
And if you are unlucky enough to get stung I'm told soaking your foot in very hot water is a way neutralizing the toxin for some relief.
Is Dawson Ave still legit? I thoought Pookiipa state park was closed for business - great news if not.

Yep its open just stay upwind of the swimming pole if its a nice day and the swimmers are out.
Nearly stood on one at Ricketts South on Saturday, right in almost on the beach. Scared the @#$%^& out of me.
And those big f*ckn jelly fish are back with a vengeance. Can they stink? Dropped a gybe at Mentone today and kicked something hard and slippery under the water.

*sting
they're stinking up the water right now
Was wondering why there weren't many swimmers out yesterday, we won't have to worry about swimming zones if this keeps up ![]()
WTF! Those new poles must have disturbed their habitat! Out with the poles!
Who got jabbed Jerry?
Actually I dont know the guy.

@djwally will tell you all about it... he stood on one a few years back windsurfing at Ricketts and ended up at the horse-piddle too.
