In this case I wasnt the only one the beach watching this boat. There was a couple with a kontiki who had a pair of binoculars and were desperately trying to get a number and name to report him as well. There were a few others on the beach as well.


I had no doubt it was a long shot but you never know. 3 or 4 eyewitnesses and photos may have made all the difference. And if you enhance some of the other pictures I have, some of the numbers are a bit more clear. It was worth a try. Anyway ro be fair I'm not sure his net was in the water at the time so for all I know he might have been having a cup of tea.
