Possible missing American Kayaker- Please Help

Drea - 1-22-2013 at 02:28 PM

Please help get out the word.

I'm contacting you because I am trying to get word out and find my boyfriend. We were down in Loreto last week kayaking and when I flew out of Loreto on Friday, January 18th he told me he was going down to Agua Verde alone to camp and kayak for the weekend. He told me he would check in on Monday, January 21st in the morning or early afternoon and if I didn't hear from him that something could be wrong. HIs plan was to be in cellphone service, today, Tuesday January 22nd so that he could work via phone and internet. I am concerned because he usually sticks to a plan and he is a beginner kayaker. If you have any contacts in Agua Verde that would be extremely helpful. Please forward this to anyone you think could get word to or from Agua Verde or has the ability to check on him.

He is in a 1986 Brown Volkswagen Westfalia with four wheel drive, kayak racks, and two kayaks on top. He is tall, about 6.1 or so with a shaved head, beard, and green eyes. His beard will be slightly shorter than this picture because he cut it down last week.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with questions.

Good luck Drea. I'm sure there are some Nomads in the area that will be of assistance.

Here is a picture of Bob and I from last week when we were down there. His beard might be slightly shorter because he trimmed it soon after this picture.

I am sure you mean well, but I think Dennis had some thing else in mind :bounce:

A most joyous ending which has morphed into a most joyful relief as humor. :bounce:
