Austrian surfer rescued at Adriatic Sea


I have just read an article in austriantimes.at about an Austrian surfer.
I thought you might be interested because it happened very often that people had an accident with surfboards.

Basically what it says is that Ottmar Streiter was rescued after having a problem with his surfboard in the southern Adriatic Sea.
Streiter, 72, is known as a very good surfer. He has spent his holidays for years in Croatia.
His friends suspected something was wrong when he had not returned at home after four hours. They informed the police and the maritime-rescue.

The Rescuers found him on the northern side of Korcula Island. Streiter’s surfboard had broken and he had been swept away by a strong wind but he managed to reach the island’s coast.

Resuming up I can say that I’m happy that there are good rescue-teams at Croatia.
