As anyone who's read my previous posts will know, I've 'scored' a number of obsolete 1980's fibreglass windsurfer boards, a gaudy Farrelly and a beautifully finished Wind Action being the main players in my little recycling project.

I took the WA out into the surf for just the 3rd time on Monday, and a younger bloke than me on a Malibu said...

"That's the biggest surfboard I've ever seen! Just how long is it?"

So I explained that it was 9'4", it was formerly a windsurfer, and that only a matter of a few weeks ago it had been sitting on a pile of rubbish waiting to go out in the upcoming council junk collection, until I 'rescued' it that was.

So I've created a Facebook page that follows the boards, and my, journey back into the water. I also haven't surfed for many years, so the boards and I are both learning...

Please feel free to come along and have a look, and post a comment if you like...
