Sorry for posting this in (maybe) the wrong place. I placed a notice last fall in the lost and found, but received no response.

Sail probably left in the Gorge at the Hatch, Doug's or Stevenson, sometime in late September. The sail has blue trim and yellow panels. The bag is red with black letters. My name may or may not be wr ...

The new Doug's sensor reports more data points and shows more ups and downs. More data isn't necessarily good, like sitting too close to a tv. So which one more closely feels like the wind on the wate ...

Don't know if the clouds cause or are caused by the changing conditions, and don't really care. I can't see pressure changes, but I can see clouds, and when I see them, it's enough to know to pay more ...

As you head upwind push the mast forward toward the nose of the board in front of you, which shifts the center of focus forward and will push the nose through the eye of the wind. But don't leave it t ...

I learned on the Malibu back in the early 80s, with a large camber-induced 6.0 sail, and I spent years learning to do what someone on new equipment learns in a day. Look up my post called "is the ...

OK. Let's see, you're 5'4, 125, with 10 years of gymnastic experience, stoked on windsurfing, camping, having fun, making friends and beer.

Somehow it is just hard to fathom that you could have any ...
