Slightly North of Long Island? Check Out The Hudson River Rats

Ned Crossley hit me with this link for the Hudson River Windsurfers web site.

If you're a windsurfer in the area, check them out because they (according to the site:)

• sponsor two learn-to-windsurf days each summer at Kingston Point Beach.
• We organize windsurfing trips to East Coast locations including Cape Hatteras, Lakes Bay, Cape Cod, and others.
• A printed newsletter is mailed several times per year to all members.
• We maintain a members-only email list (reflector) on Yahoo! Groups.
• We maintain a members-only wiki with links to Hudson River tides and currents, a list of upcoming club events, a photo gallery, list of stuff for sale, member directory, trip reports, and more.
• HVW was instrumental in organizing and raising funds for the recent installation of three iWindsurf wind meters on the Hudson River.

And just like the Peconic Puffin, they have a map of windsurfing sites .    Check it all out!

I met Ned in the OBX this year... he actually crashed in our house for a couple nights. Good on him for publicizing his club...

I had just stumbled across that recently - too cool! One of these days I hope to be caught up enough with work to go home at a decent hour & have a good read.

Sort of odd that we don't have more windsurfers in Jamaica Bay. Seems like a good place for it.

no, wait, that wasn't it - somebody who windsurfs in the Piermont area has a blog! I bet he's part of this group though. Rats, I hope I can find that again.
