Andrei:

Thanks for update! :D Always nice to hear how you are doing - particularly when it is good news! :D

:?: Have they given you a 'prediction' on when you will be able to resume your 'normal' activities (windsurfing)? :wink: :D

C36, we haven't met yet, but there are 3 of us (KC7777, mortontoemike, and myself; Keith, Mike, and George) from the lower mainland that are going to try to get down to Florence for some intro sessions in the waves, and beyond that, we'll see how hard the beverage fund is being hit, and with regard...

:idea: I keep hoping to see RD post here. :D :D :D With a whole page of comments on the orange pictures , I can see the thought of the Oregon Coast is popular right now. My family is pushing for a 'warm' summer holiday this year, but all I keep thinking about is the Oregon Coast (and Maui is so flat...

Kus: Good discussion. Your comments are appreciated (as always). ...In the meantime I will strive to always purchase the masts that go with the sails ...when you sell your sails, don't you also sell your masts?

RD:
I hope that now that we have the shortest day of the year behind us,
that you now also have the darkest part of your healing journey behind you,
and that with each day now growing a little longer and a little brighter,
so you also feel a little stronger day-by-day.
Happy New Year! :D

IMCS mast testing (do-it-yourself guide)

Do It Yourself IMCS Testing Have you ever had a rig that just never felt right – too stiff or maybe it was WAY too soft? :? Ever think that maybe the mast you were running in the rig might not be the ‘right’ match for the sail? :idea: One sail manufacturer says (in addition to ‘bad’ matches) there ...

Some more words of support from the messageboard: Arturo : - ...Andre I have been thinking about you and maybe if you have a chance should hop a plane to La Ventana.
