Dayum, hats off to you, mate. I've heard stories about the first surfers at Rotto paddling over, but didn't know anyone did that now. I can understand the water-rats making you get on board, but fining you - that's low.
I'm a few years late geting to this but, holy shit you are the man! you made it there in my mind. Does also go to show how good the authorities are around there. Makes me feel like someone would find me if I really was in trouble going out there.
Can't believe they fined you. What a joke. Nothing better to do, ey? Great Job on a fantastic achievement. Respect. Also shows your mental strength to kindly decline the other offer of "rescue".
I can't believe you made it 20 kms out there with those huge stainless steel balls dragging you down. Shame the nanny state had to intervene.

Good job mate, could only imagine how hard that will be. Unbelievable that you would be fined for that though..
The Noahs would've been a potential worry.
