Looks like a lot of fun. Though, not something I'd set out to do in 40

Let me be the first to say "Brrrr".
Looks like it was a fine breezy day, though... no serious windsurfer could resist that.  ;D

Marvelous, especially the sixth one!  :o

adore #5 Hagar, couldn't of set that one any better!!

Why are all the really blowy days in winter (retorical question, not smart answers required  :D )?? Its cruel! Last time i went surfing this year was the 1st of November, my cut of point! I spose it does act as an extra incentive to keep the rig up, but in hotter countries you have sharks for that  ;D
