@MamaLake look at this one 😲 #kitesurfer

Since I am both a nerd, and a #kitesurfer with a previous life in the aviation industry, I was really interested in a #tabletop board game that I stumbled across a few years ago, called “Windward.”

It takes a little bit to get going and learn the rules, but once you get it, it is a really engaging game and story.

We’ve been playing it on and off for a few years now, and I finally snagged the “Treacherous Skies” expansion on eBay.

It adds an entirely new level of strategy, and I dare say this might be me and my sons’ favorite board game at this point.

I know this post is probably interesting to like 3 people, but if that’s you, you gotta check it out. #windward #boardgames

Become the most notorious sky captain by harnessing the wind and hunting leviathans.

Burry Port RNLI marks 80th call‑out of the year after kite surfer rescue alert

Kite surfer reported in difficulty near Pembrey

At 3.25pm on Sunday, Milford Haven Coastguard paged Burry Port RNLI to assist a kite surfer thought to be in trouble between Pembrey and Broughton.

The station’s relief Atlantic 85 lifeboat Roy Snewin and D‑Class Williams and Cole were launched immediately, with Tenby’s all‑weather lifeboat also tasked to the area.

Casualty self‑recovered before lifeboats arrived

While crews were en route, the Coastguard confirmed that the casualty had managed to self‑recover and make their way safely ashore.

Burry Port’s Atlantic 85 located and recovered the kite surfer’s equipment before both lifeboats were stood down and returned to station.

80th launch of 2025

The incident marked the 80th call‑out of the year for Burry Port RNLI, underlining the continued demand on volunteer crews.

A spokesperson said: “A huge thank you to our dedicated volunteers and all partner agencies involved. Please always check the weather, tides, and wind direction before heading out on the water. Offshore winds can quickly carry kite surfers, paddle boarders, and other water users out to sea.”
