G'day all,

Recently arrived in SA from UK and v. depressed; kit not arriving till the summer; only seen one windsurfer (Largs Bay) out in the last couple of months; and I'm currently sh!tting myself with the recent shark attack stories from the non-windsurfing locals I've met.

All morale boosting banter appreciated.

Cheers
Arlo

Steveo big tip. Don’t fall in stay up in your gybes and tacks
If that fails you will just have to Harden up, sister

Seriously, they only put these stories up to keep the tourists out

SA crew will make you welcome
