I'm seeing more and more kiters at uppers (kanaha) and I'm concerned that there will soon be incidents between the kiters and local windsurfers. I'm already hearing threats being made against the kiters by some of the more vocal sailors, and with the increase of traffic on the water that comes with summer the problem will only grow larger. I checked the Maui Kiteboarding Zone Maps, and it seems that this area is still off-limits to kiters, but I'm also hearing that the rules no longer apply.
Do they still apply? Should I point out the sign at uppers (or kooks beach) to the visiting kiters, or what do you recommend? I want the different groups of water sports enthusiasts to be able to co-exist peacefully, and it seems to work pretty well on the south side of the island whenever I sail Maalea. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I sail at lunchtime most days at Kanaha, so I can pass on your recommendations to many of the local sailors I see there.
Mahalo for your assistance,
