Hey guys,

I'm looking to get more involved with windsurfing after having a blast with my mates who have a few boards. I want to get a full package (ready to sail) suitable for a beginner. Something with a retractable centreboard would be good. But I don't just want a big floater, I want something that will get up and go as well as be stable.

My mate said she didn't get any of her windsurfers for over 50 bucks (she said she got them from garage sales). I am willing to spend up to $200 if the price is right though.

So if anyone has their first windsurfer that is now collecting dust (be that because of children, upgraded gear, whatever), I would love to hear from you via pm or [email protected]

Cheers! Michael

That is a pretty good setup for $1000

If you can afford it that is.....

Hi Michael,
I feel your pain, at your age i was exactly the same. I loved windsurfing but was too commited financially and time wise to sailing. If I had my time again I would wipe sailing and stick to windsurfing but each to thier own. IMO the best thing you could do right now is get a few lessons. Gives you the chance to find out if you like it, speeds up the learning heaps and will prob get you past needing a beginer board with a centreboard in no time. I think in the long run this will save heaps of dollars and if you do give it a crack and like it theres heaps of guys (and Gals) that will help you out. Theres a guy called Matt just started up a school, seems like a good guy. PM me if you want his number.
