Man, that really sucks dude. Was it not possible to swim out and retrieve it? I'd be cryin man. Beautiful boat.
I swam out and had it but couldn't hold on and swim at the same time. Twice in two weeks I've had to swim for boats. Almost couldn't get back on this one. I'm pretty sure I'm done with these things.
 
That's gutting!

I've been in a number of situations, due to the wind just dying or blowing too strong, that I figured I lost my Kyosho Fortune sailboat.
I've recently got myself a cheapo rescue boat.
 
I'd be hanging out there as much as possible because it would suck to lose that one. I feel your pain bro. Good luck, and here's hoping it washes up somewhere and gets found.

I'm on a mini vacation in the area. I didn't pay a whole lot for it but thankfully still alive to tell the tale.

After a stern warning from my significant other..."No more boats." Two swims in two weeks , three strikes and you're out. I'm putting all the floating things on a shelf. Or for sale.

I’m sorry to hear that. It must be absolutely sickening. I hope it never happens to me

I haven’t sailed anywhere where there’s a chance of losing mine. It usually just puts me in a really embarrassing situation
 
Thats why if you run rc boats you have a retrieval boat .on hand and ready to fetch
