Mast clamp needed.

I bought a cheep, huge ass board to learn how to windsurf on but i did not realize it dosnt have a mast clamp. Mast clamp conects the boom to the mast, right? So does anyone have a used mast clamp to sell? I assume there are several different styles and sizes to make this real simple. :roll: Thanks ...

Thanks for the advice! I will keep my eye on Willows beach. By the way, is Shawnigan doable?

I DO have a crab trap! Nice idea, a day of fun in the sun and dinner to bring home to cool the matrial heat! :roll:

Any recomendations for water to learn to windsurf?

Hi!

Finally got myself a bigass 10' board to learn how to windsurf! Where would be a good place to practice? I live in Victoria. I thought Elk Lake would be good but someone said the wind can be "squirly"???

Any recomendations?

Thanks a ton,

Jeremy.

How can you tell by looking at the board if it would be a glass repair or a epoxy repair?

Not sure if it is a BIC. How can you tell? The board is $75 with mast, boom and dagger. What do you think?

Question for anyone online at the moment.

About to make a 3 hour drive to pick up a used beginner board needing repairs. Seller tells me where the mast extention attaches to the board has a brocken part. Next to or on the bendable piece. I thought there was just a whole on the board for the mast extention?

Anyone have a clue?

Jeremy.
