Re: Where to find Wsurf/SUP Package?

If you want a blow up beach toy that paddles and sails Bic & Starboard make kits to do both, the revamped Windsurfer One design would do both too with an emphasis on Windsurfing of course. Surely there are lots of other brands with products.

Re: Speed sailing…wow

WoW And I thought 55mph was about the fastest.. But I think that record requires a 1 mile or 1km sustained run.

Its nice to think Hwy 19 drivers might slow down to watch these guys going by at just 20kph under the North Island Highway speed limit. LoL

I've yet to go to the trench or even that ...

Pipers & S. Salish Sea

Prior to the fire sky Pipers, Jericho and much of the S. Salish have been going off beautifully,

Even on Windfest weekend both coasts of the S. Salish looked super sweet. I hope it keeps happening.

Wind Models WM5

The availability of Wind Forecast Model data is an essential part of Sailing, of learning about weather and how the confusing unpredicable PNW weather is unlike most Weather Forecasting in Canada

It has equal bearing for American living in the Juan de Fuca & Haro cooridors as well.
