How long have windsurfers been part of the regatta? Our own little regatta has been going for 44 yrs just a year less than Engadinwind in Switzerland.

What a great legacy of 187 yrs. If I lived anywhere close, I'd be there just to support the event. Best of luck.

it has been open centreboard/off the beach for a long time. not sure how long it has been open as a centreboard regatta but it initially started for yachts.
there is usually not many windsurfers as not many sail on Pittwater but I am trying to get some more so i have someone to race and not just the other dinghy's on handicap.
