Re: Quadra Island
I hope to get there, go for a sail and build a wooden bike Lance Armstrong wants to pay a $1m for. Then I'd return and buy all the foil and wingdinging gear I never wanted.

Hi Dark, I'll take it from Sunday to Wednesday, barring an emergency trip to the interior. Happy to share with one other camper too.

Re: Where to find Wsurf/SUP Package?
If you want a blow up beach toy that paddles and sails Bic & Starboard make kits to do both, the revamped Windsurfer One design would do both too with an emphasis on Windsurfing of course. Surely there are lots of other brands with products.

Re: Speed sailing…wow

Prior to the fire sky Pipers, Jericho and much of the S. Salish have been going off beautifully,
