Does anyone else have kiteboarders all over their launch spots, had any problem launching or landing because of them? I drove by today to see who was out since the storm had passed thru no cats only about 20 kites zig zagging across the launch. I remember when I tryed learning that a few years ago I had my kite over head standing on dry sand and out of nowhere about 7 cats had landed directly down wind of me. I managed to walk upwind away from them and within 10 minutes they were all gone again. I know those kite strings are under a lot of tension (braided kevlar) and would hate to trip into one with my mast sailing to or from the shore.
Someone suggested I carry a line cutter incase I had to get out of the trap lines in a hurry. I can think of another reason to have it now.
