Hi, I'm new here

Post by AndyG »

Hi All,
I'm new to the forum (after lurking for a while) and thought I'd introduce myself.
I'm recently returned to the midwest (after stints in New Mexico and California) and new to the Minneapolis area. I did some windsurfing back in the late 90s (when I was in high school), but since then I haven't been able to put together the correct combination of wind, water, time, and a place to store my gear... until now!
I've finally dusted off the old equipment, and I've been trying to get out as time and weather allow this summer. Turns out, you get a little rusty after a 17 year hiatus, but its fun to be back on the water.

I'm mostly sailing at Calhoun, since its the quickest lake to get to from where I live. So if you see a guy out there on an old bic Samba and Sailworks Bravo 6.5, struggling with his water-starts and jibes, that's probably me. Stop over and say hi. I'd love meet some other sailors in the area.

Andy

P.S. I'll probably be out tonight assuming the weather holds. It looks like we might actually get wind >10mph heading into sunset.
