Next swell keep your eyes open you might see one in the water. Also I would look at ebay they might try to sell there. Sorry hopefully you will find them.

I once had five boards stolen out of the back of my truck at my home in Seagrove. I posted signs and put the word out to the beach service guys and basically put out a $1000.00 reward for the return of the boards; no questions asked. I put out the word that hopefully whoever stole them could have a moment to reconsider the mistake they made and make it right rather than feel the heat if they get caught. I said, I don't care who took them I just want them back. I felt it was a long shot but it worked perfectly.
Evidently the word got out around the streets and someone pressured the thieves to contact me. I got a call... a message on my voice mail saying "your boards are behind the store at black creek road in freeport" click......I went up there and 4 of the 5 boards were there. I never had to pay the $1000 because the kid never left a number. I am sure it was one of them. I say kids because he sounded like he was in his early teens. Try to think of any teens who might be in your neigborhood who could have had a look in your garage. It's a small community, they could surface and they might surprise you and do the right thing. Talk to everyone in your neighborhood; I'd bet it was local kids from around there. Boards are expensive these days. Hope this helps. Waves are up this week; call me if you need to borrow a board. I've got 17 boards, Seriously. 865-1061 Dave

My bike was stolen two nights ago in Seagrove. 
Tthanks Dave, I'm talking to everyone I can. I really want my boards back, not replacements so I'm asking everyone if they know anything. And thanks for the offer to borrow one of yours, I may take you up on it if the swell arrives. How did you go about offering the reward??
I know of another person that lost bikes also, so we have a recurring thief in the area we need to get rid of.
