I have taken up rowing as my non-wind keep fit activity. First regatta was at Champion Lakes last Saturday and I wish I had taken my board with me as it was crap for rowing
It has been built to reduce the effect of the wind on the course (although that wasn't very obvious on Saturday - brrrrr), so while the water is flat, I am not sure that it would be that good for sailing and likely to get worse when they start to put in more wind protection. The wind was very up and down along the course. I think the local council is the contact if you want to find out more about what the course can be used for.
It feels very wrong talking about wind protection etc, like I am cheating on my first love (windsurfing)
It certainly felt wrong to be sitting out there while everyone else was hooning around on the ocean.
