Lake Macquarie Wally and Longboard Windsurfing
Hey all
I'm looking for anyone interested in social windsurfing of Longboards on Lake Macquarie.
it would be good to get a few windsurfers together for a fun afternoon of sailing once a week.
it doesn't need to be competitive, just fun. I'm happy to sail in anything for 3 knots to 30!
thats the beauty of longboards. Hey if it's windy, slalom ok.
if you want to race we can do it formally at Marmong Point Sailing Club either every week or once a month.
i live at Marks Point but happy to sail anywhere. The channel and sailing round the sand islands is a fun sail and challenging dodging the shallow bits, sandy bottom everywhere and clean clear water!
i have the new Wally Windsurfer LT which is a terrific board to sail and so much easier than the old wallys. I also have a few mistral competitions and an F2 Lightning and a few slaloms so ready for anything and happy to loan a board to anyone interested in getting involved again.
wanting to keep it simple, cheap and fun. Not interested in an arms race for the most expensive kit but by all means bring it along for us poor people to check out!
also interested in traveling to Gosford regularly to sail with those guys.
it is great to check out some different sailing spots and check out some of the other clubs around and meet like minded windsurfers.
my email is alhaynes@me.com

hope we can get this sport growing again in Lake Macquarie, home of numerous world windsurfing champions!
the largest saltwater lake in the Southern Hemisphere needs more windsurfers on the water so drag out and dust off the old board, spares are easily available and swapped, old boards are cheap as and the new Windsurfer LT COMPLETE WITH RIG $1999 for those interested in racing - everyone welcome and novice class available for those new to the sport. You don't need to be. A champion you don't need to be super fit, anyone from 5 to 90 can windsurf.
it doesn't have to be about high performance, just fun and cruisin'
cheers, Al
