Yes but I'm wondering how a bright yellow kayak just disappears, surely someone would have seen it, cheers davo
It's an exhilarating feeling catching a fish

Unless he's come ashore someplace, that's two days and two nights in the bay, in or out of a kayak - a pretty serious situation at any time of the year. Family & friends must be feeling it at the moment, poor buggers...

Not knowing what's happened or where he is would be a nightmare for the families concerned,

so let's hope he's found safe & well very soon..

Hope for his sake he is not still on the water, it's a long time to be out there and today would just be a nightmare.

this guy has been missing for quite some time hopefully he has got to shore but it at the moment doesn't look good

it seams he left without a PFD or wearing gear to stay warm in the water ( no wet suit or other type gear ) with the water temps atm if he did end up in the water he would have been in trouble in a very short time
