Default Lost planner

I just saw on Annapolis Craigslist that someone found a red planner board. Not exactly sure how you lose one.

We were down near the CP buoy and heard someone off Ches Beach announcing he saw a burgundy planer board heading down the bay. I can easily see how you could lose a planer board on a day like today. We had a planer board flip twice. I cannot explain it but each time that damn board righted itself like it had been trained.

Damn Don you must be living right! I flipped one last year, on a day like today, and it dove straight down. What a cluster f***. Probably were a couple boards flipped out there today.

FWIW: Good idea to put cell number on the top of planer boards. Makes getting it back more likely.

Some one reported seeing an orange board near HS marker on Saturday.

It's nice to see someone is trying to return a lost planer to its rightful owner:

Good idea to post this here Scott. I have taken the liberty to put it over on TF as well.
