If you have extra room I could rent from 12/4 to 10/5 anywhere along the bay(St Kilda to Black Rock) I have near new kite for you.
Its 7m but as powerfull as most 8m, got it for those Melbourne frontals that Im not going to enjoy this year afterall.
I have only one bag and my own linnen, I think Im very clean due to countless hours in salt water( either the bay or pool).
The most important is that all my babies have safe and secure place to stay.
Ihave 6 of them 3 kites and 3 boards, so if you can help get in touch and one of those will be yours.

Thanks for your help Aorta but at this stage Ill give it a miss cos sleeping on the floor make me stiff and Im afraid to be prone to an injury while kiting afterwards.
