This recap will be based on 2 reports with the first being the mechanical report, cause without Kevin and Andy Gratton's generous help, we could very well be...
OMG!! I forgot to declare the u-joints at the border! Probably a good thing anyways, any word with 'joint' in it combined with driving a Big Blue Surfmobile...
Woody, What kind of u-joints did Kevin and company set you up with, hour-glass, tendon, or mechanical? Glad you had a good trip, Jeff Adamski ... Received:...
Does anyone know the dates for the following events? I know the calendar is out there, but I think it may be inaccurate. Can someone tell me when. Our calendar...
Another area sailor and I may be able to attend the Pewaukee Lake Crossing on Aug 19 per the MOWIND calendar. This would be our first MOWIND regatta....
Uffe - I hope the dates in the calendar for Kevin's race & Mike's race are right, those are the weekends I have reserved for them. Since Kevin provided the...
In her last MOWIND newsletter, I believe Renee announced that the Pewaukee Crossing was cancelled. The launch site is usually downtown Pewaukee at the beach,...
July 30 - Aug 2 2006 I-LYA Bay Week Regatta Put-In-Bay Ohio on South Bass island TABA (Toledo Area BoardSailing Association) windsurfers make sailing...
I saw this video link posted on the calcup group, and thought others here might also like it. There are a wide range of boards shown - flat bottomed...
Thanks Jeff, the only reason I am doubtful, and I will call Kevin to confirm, is that on the www.uswindsurfing.org website the dates for Windpower Champs is...
I called Kevin and confirmed, the Windpower Champs. is Sept 23-24 (with the crossing on the 22nd). The calendar on uswindsurfing.org is incorrect. I emailed...
Good luck Uffe with your Maui races! We spent the weekend in Menominee and Woody & Margot were camping next to us. You will have to ask them about their, er,...
Hi, how's it? Hope you are good - just dropped you an Add request I saw you were into windsurfing :-) and I was wondering if you could help me with a dream? I...
the nationals here on Maui are off with a bang- as usual. The week before had very light wind (thanks to the tail end of the hurrincane that luckily skipped...
Marlyn, thanks for the great update and our best to Mark as he competes - looks like he is off to an awesome start. One of the people there from the midwest...
The Nationals finished up yesterday, with 2 course races,followed by a luau at the beach and awards. Mark ended up with 7 bullets (and one 3rd...just to keep...
Congrats Mark, Carolyn, & Joe, I think I can speak for a lot of people and say that we are very proud of Mark's accomplishment. While we're at it, Toledo and...
I'm with Linus on congratulating Steve. I've sailed with Steve since we were both pumping away on IMCO's at Walleye Weekend 15 years ago, and was lucky enough...
I have updated and posted race results through Menominee. As we approach the end of the current year (Higgins), we will need soon to determine our approach...
'Gypsy John' Cosno was kind enough to send me the pictures he took at the Bradford Beach Jam. I posted a bunch of them in the Bradford Beach album. I got an...
Good idea Jeff. I will post some stuff this weekend or early next week to let people look at the different ways RC can get compensated points. btw, thanks Jeff...
Unless things have changed greatly since the days of my active involvement, being a race director is a huge burden (Time, Money, more Time, more Money.....)...
Yes, reward race directors with the same points they would get for finishing in first place in their usual class. And reward race committee members too. (I've...
I would just add there there be a minimum number of races for this to apply, such as two. If you look at the extreme case you could have someone run five...
I agree with Linus that we should all be thankful to the RC for running races, but I think that awarding first place points is subject to issues like Jack...
I totally agree with Arden. If Kevin for example is RC of the 'big' events, he should be rewarded as such with points to reflect those well attended events. RC...
I didn't get a chance to post this yet to the Yahoo group right away, but better late than never. The Menominee Waterfront Festival was once again a great...
I just put this together for the August MOWIND newsletter, so I will post it here as well. Thanks to everyone that has voiced their opinion so far. This is my...
I only got a few pictures out on the water at Menominee. I posted some of the tandem board. It was a lot of fun to ride. This was also the first race that I...
