HANALEI — Marine biologist Terry Lilley has been found alive and well at Anini Beach after the Coast Guard found his overturned kayak, considered him a missing person and launched a full-scale search with the help of Kauai Fire and Lifeguard Services Tuesday.
His green kayak, labeled with his name and phone number, was located at 3:40 p.m. and by 6 p.m. he’d been found alive and well.
“I was gone for three weeks in California and someone stole my kayak during that time,” Lilley told The Garden Island Tuesday evening. “I’m alive and well and now I have to get a permit to drive up to Ha’ena and get my kayak back.”

Glad he’s alive. Still not a marine biologist.
Ms. Schmidt, a marine biologist, by definition, is a person that studies, or works, with salt water organisms. Terry fits that description quite well. Your opinion is invalid.
Actually.. A Marine Biologist has: studied biological oceanography, and the associated fields of chemical, physical and geological oceanography to understand marine organisms.
My opinion is based in fact and is reasonable, therefore is it by definition valid.
Terry is NOT a marine biologist. Fact.
Really? A full story? What else could there possibly be a need to say?
he sounds annoyed that he has to ‘get a permit’ to retrieve his kayak! What self centeredness, when the community spent time and resources to try to locate him. Best he get down on his knees and thank the universe that he still breathes!
Whoa, i worry. Kauaians, Be cognizant of your surroundings at all times. Too many unaccounted for woman and men.
