Does anyone know what the story was with the 2 kites drifting waaaay downwind from Woodies towards Freo yesterday arvo? By the time we noticed they were already a very long way out and getting help from someone in a boat. I'm curious to know how both kiters would end up in such a muddle without body dragging in (both kites were still flying). Somebody must know something...?

I didn't see it that day, but on plenty of other occassions its been the kite school operating on the downwind side. It often looks hideously outta control to me, but everyone assures me that its ok, personally I don't think its a great idea to watch total novices body drag out into the open sea, but there's always a boat close at hand to recover all the bewildered newbies, and the tumbling kites rolling out to sea. Lets hope that boat engine never breaks down...
