Years ago, my father was diagnosed with throat cancer, so he spent the entire summer sailing almost everyday of the summer with my mom. Luckily the cancer didn't kill him, but he did sell the boat after his surgery. It's been 20 years since he should have died, and he still talks about that...
Hope you find it. Had some jokers steal my Hobie years ago. 4 chained cinder blocks buried in the sand and locked to the dolphin striker did the trick. Just don't leave the keys at home like I did a few times.
