Thanks all for chiming in! I'm most curious about the windsurfing community - is it a good way to make friends as an adult? I'm hearing you say that it is, which is great! I really miss the windsurfing community at the club where I learned. There's not many windsurfers where I live (Seattle, USA) and so there's not really a community around the sport here.

I guess a second question would be, what do you do for fun/exercise in the winter?


A big community of windsurfers and ready made friends await you.

Winter we windsurf the storms, and NEasters which are warm and sunny winter days. These are not as reliable as the 6 month summer seabreezes. At times, we Can have 2 or 3 sails a week in winter and then nothing for a few weeks. Winter is big swell time so lots of surfing. Cycling is popular. The nearest snow is about 3800km away. Winter Trips up north to the warmer climates of Western Australia, good easterly winds over winter, from Shark bay to Dampier. Then its up to your imagination and interests?

I left melbourne in 1994 and moved to WA, WA has been the best part of my life, the climate, the windsurfing, the friendships, the travel, big community of windsports fanatics, but it is what you make of it, you can come to WA and if you have a negative mindset you wont be able to enjoy what WA has to offer

Hi Everyone, yesterday was Fangy's memorial service, and a few of us discussed a Fangy Memorial/Statue/Structure for the Coodanup Foreshore. I asked his wife Michelle for permission she liked the idea and agreed for it to go ahead. So the first step is to come up with an idea that is doable. Then we would have to get Council approval, and then construct and install. So can I ask for people to brainstorm the ideas that would work and be a worthy memorial to the great man. Please post your ideas on this thread.

Ps. Any constructive feedback on the ideas put forward would also be helpful.
