Can be heard online here starting at 44 secounds in the recording.

Bad Sailors Prompt Coast Guard Warning
The Coast Guard is trying to crack down on bad drivers -- or rather, bad sailors -- in San Francisco Bay. Industrial vessels are reporting about 13 near-collisions per month with smaller vessels, like sailboats or kiteboarders, that zip in front of them.

Although windsurfers are not mentioned specifically you are included in the smaller vessels catagory.

Just a heads up...I have posted on the Bay Area kitboarding site too.
