THEY ENCOUNTERED HIGH WINDS & HIGH WAVES ON MOONLIGHT BAY ON THEIR KAYAK TRIP TO CANA ISLAND. ONE HUSBAND & WIFE PAIR TURNED BACK SHORTLY INTO THE TRIP. ANOTHER HUSBAND & WIFE GOT SEPARATED FROM THE MAIN GROUP & HEADED TO SHORE. THEIR EXPERIENCE IS REPORTED ON BARD REPORT WI-2009-0079. THE REMAINING GROUP OF FOUR PAIRED KAYAKERS & ONE GUIDE MADE IT TO SHORE NEAR THE LIGHT HOUSE ON CANA ISLAND. THE RETURN TRIP WAS STALLED AND PREVENTED FROM CONTINUING WHEN TWO KAYAKS OF PAIRED YOUNG GIRLS VENTURED OUT INTO THE BAY AND ENCOUNTERED HIGHER WAVES THAN THEY EXPERIENCED ON THE EARLIER PORTION OF THE TRIP. TWO SISTERS WENT OUT FIRST ON THE RETURN TRIP AND WAITED FOR THE REST TO JOIN THEM. THE NEXT PAIR ALSO MADE IT OUT TOWARDS THE OTHER PAIR. THE PAIR OF YOUNG GIRLS DID NOT MAKE IT FAR. THEIR KAYAK CAPSIZED & THEY WERE ASSISTED TO SHORE BY THE HUSBAND & WIFE OF THE THREE DAUGHTERS. AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING (11-9-09) IT IS UNKNOWN HOW THE PAIR OF SISTERS & THE OTHER PAIR OF YOUNG WOMEN (2 KAYAKS), FARED AFTER THEY FIRST DID MAKE IT OUT INTO THE BAY. THERE WAS NO REPORTED MISSING PERSONS BY INVESTIGATING OFFICERS, BUT THEN AGAIN, NO OFFICER INCIDENT REPORTS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO THIS AGENCY.
