Hi guys,

Does any know if there is a swap meet this year? I need to get myself a 100-110l board.

Thanks,

I learned about the AWOS (Automated Weather Observing System, basically weather reporting from the local airports) yesterday from a unknown kiter at Medicine Lake. I think it really gives most of the info you could get from a webcam in a more quantitative format. The most relevant site for Medicine ...

On Thursday afternoon I went for a quick run on my 11.0 sail on Medicine lake. The wind filled in while I was rigging so I was over powered. On my third run I heard an almighty crack and was send straight into the water. Upon returning to the board I discovered my boom had broken at the head. I was ...

Given the lack of wind and the late naps of my kids I didn't manage to justify the drive to Waconia to myself, but I did go to Medicine Lake for 2 hours. After an initial good run on a 11.0, I proceeded to float around the lake searching for a windy spot for an hour and a half before a couple of bri...

Hopefully I should be all set for the wind level. I'm planning on bringing an f-type 158 board and 8.0, 9.0 and 11.0 sails. I'd love to think I could use a non-weed fin, in my limited number of sessions in the last 2 years, I haven't been off a weed fin (they were all on Medicine). Either way I'll h...

The weeds were pretty intense, I spent a lot of the day battling them. They seemed to reach and try to pull you down during water...

Hi guys, Could some one tell me are there any possible Launch sites at Medicine Lake aside from East Medicine Lake Park and French park? I'm a family man so my windsurfing has to be brief thus I look to sail very local to Plymouth. I did a search on this forum for Medicine Lake launches and aside fr...

Hi,

I lost a rig winch at the south beach on medicine Lake on 9/3/10. If you found it can you drop me a line.

Thanks,
Matthew

I'll be there, hopefully it won't be too windy for my smallest sail.
