Re: [bw_windsurfing] Re: Pls comment on equipment set for a beginner

Daniel,
 
Places to sail close to DC. I sail regularly at a placed called Washington Sailing Marina. It is on the Potomac river, off the south end of National Airport, in Alexandria VA. It is very convenient, but not the greatest sailing conditions. I believe the do have a windsufing lesson prorgram there that you could check out.
 
There are a couple of other close spots - Mason Neck State Park, and Bellhaven Marina that are a little further away, but do not have any rental eq.
 
THe next closest place is going to be East of Maui shop in Annapolis (an hour east) they rent eq, but are not on any water. Water is close but, still a drive. Further east are the beaches in Delaware and MD. I think East of Maui also has a store there in either Dewey or Bethaney Beach that rents and provides instruction.
 
Past that if you want or can drive 4 or 5 hours are Virginia Beach and the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This is by far the best they have lots of rental eq, great conditions, and lessons.

Hi Mike, Prices sound reasonable, and that board size would be your best bet in this area and given your size and skills. In fact, it probably will be a board...
