Florida windfest this upcoming weekend, April 19+20. Come on down for
a demo on a Kona! Calema is co-hosting the event. More info at
www.aerotechsails.com. Worth the drive to kick start your spring
windsurfing season, perhaps? I live on my Kona 11-5 in the surf!
Nearly any wind/wave combo worx. Cheers.
