I lived up that way for four years in the late 1980s. It’s a fabulous network of west coast inlets, intriguing history and abundant adventures. It was common knowledge that during the summer you wanted to get off the water by early afternoon, in the big inlets, due to the thermals. Back then it was ...

Ray is a positive ambassador for good times!

I saw a windsurfer sailing those waters about 7 years ago! Looked like big gear. Curious about the current through there.

As mentioned above, the best launch area is the Beaufort rest area half way or so along the lake. The beach at the east end of the lake is a busy picnic and swimming area once ...if... summer arrives. My experience as a windsurfer only, is that you need warm days and thermals to have any reliable wi...

It’s unfortunate that some of this population is abusing the privilege of parking here.

No problem opening pics. Thank you for lots of good shots. Well done!

Really sorry to hear that Lawrence. It looked like a significant sprain injury when you did it. Why such a long delay for surgery. It was ? October when that happened?

Piper's has been awesome this week!
No crowds, no logging roads😀
Better waves than the other alternatives.
Managed two out of the five days the wind machine was cranking😀

Ah.. he's just trying to floss his teeth

Yup, the road is really smooth. Trouble is that people go too fast... passed one car nose down in the gully by the wood bridge. Luckily no injuries.

I propose that the BWD community pre-books KC7777's holidays for July 2014! Otherwise, this guy is NEVER going to go to the Coast for a wave sailing initiation! This is going to be such a big event ( if it ever happens) that we will be able to sell BWD fundraisng tickets!! Keith you need to book off...

The end of June is out for me again this year due to work requirements. I have a long stretch off starting mid July and hope to connect up with whoever will be down there late July/August.
Hope to get some practice in this weekend if the forecast holds

When I think of Andrei I find that my thoughts always cause my face to break into a smile :wink: He gave a warm gift of easy human company wrapped with entertaining stories of a past life full of foreign and fascinating experiences. It was a privilege to share some very happy times along with advent...

I have been preparing myself for this news but it doesn't make it any easier when it comes.
I am so grateful that he was able to make it back to be with his family.
Having Andrei as a warm and charismatic part of our community and as a friend has been a privilege. I will miss him dearly.

I have time booked off specifically for the O-Coast June 23- July 3 and then again July 21 for a couple of weeks. Hope the wind and waves cooperate :D I have been practicing on any wave I can find... from 6" :lol: to 6'...... :shock: AND have improved my shark bait tactics immensely this year :...
