I got back down to one of my favorite places on the East Coast the Outerbanks of North Carolina (aka OBX) on the island of Hatteras in the town of Avon. I was in a big house with around a dozen windsurfing fanatics largely from the Long Island area. When I say big house I mean a big house.
The best part was the people in the house...
We had communal meals. There was never time to read even a magazine between the wind and good company.
What I love about OBX is you get West Coast style sunsets as the inland is miles away.
Finally we came to sail. We had wind 7 out of 7 days. Sunday light wind on the 1850 Armstrong foil with 6m wing, Monday 5.6 on 102 Pyscho freestyle board, Tuesday (down patrol) 4.4 on 89l board, Wednesday 5.2 on 82 Stubby wave (amazing how well this small board rides like a larger board), Thursday 4.4 on 74l, Friday 4.4 then 3.8 on 72l (new to me board).
