Certain death or destruction ! This has gotta go ( nasty yellow dot
)
Midway through a jump today I looked down & noticed something in the water. Went back for a closer look & FFFFaaaaRRRkkkk
It was a jagged marker pole of some sort maybe 30cm accross that was only exposed in between waves.
It wasnt drifting either as i gave it a kick... it looked as if something had crashed into it, which would explain why it was just below the water line. I can see an accident waiting to happen - someone being ripped to shreds if they hit it / land on it or ripping the hull out of a yacht / pleasure craft.
I saw it at about 6:30pm which would make it a Fremantle tide height of .63 metres, a slightly higher tide & youd never no its there till you hit it ![]()
Does anyone know who to report this to & has anyone else seen it
Cheers
Ps If any of you GPS speeders see it - can you plot its exact location....
where you in deep water? i.e did you walk up to it on the peli shallows? or sailed/kited back ppast it?
or was it further out? it looks to be where Nedlands spit is aprox.
if it was 30cm across this would be fit the description of a decent size spit post.
did anyone notice the spit missing yesterday? a white post with a red marker on top?
i hope it wasnt the spit post! that could create some havoc!![]()
Hey Snides8
Im guessing that it was at the edge of the spit & deep black water +- . One of those marine departments or older nav charts must have it plotted & just taken for granted that it fell over or just disappeared...
By the way, I first saw it from 20ft in the air, spotting my landing point and as i said its rock solid. After giving it a karate kick
it didnt budge - super powers dont work after Sunset ![]()
I'll just have to keep Kiteboarding till they send me more fuel for my Buzz LightYear jetpac ![]()
