I just want to post a shout out to Andrew who I meet on the beach at Wanda in NSW today. I was in NSW for work and did not have any gear with me. After 5 minutes of chatting on the beach he was kind enough to lend me his complete set up. It was about 20 knots and the sun was shinning. He was happy for me to blast around for as long as I wanted, sweet I had a great little session in a lovely spot.

I look forward to paying it forward sometime soon.

I gotta say pretty much everyone I meet involved in our sport are happy, friendly and good people. We are lucky that our sport attracts this type of crew. Lots of other sports don't have that level of comradery.

Hope you all had some good sailing this weekend too.

Great story ! I find I do not get the same service everywhere, but Wanda crowd is a great crowd !

A bit over a year ago I was at Kyeemagh preparing to go windsurfing. There was a bloke there watching and we got talking. Turned out he was a fellow seabreezer and GPS Teams Challenge windsurfer from WA. He had a few hours to kill so was at the beach to kill some time.

He had a sail on my windsurfer and was really happy to get out on the water on what was a beautiful day with a decent sea breeze. Unfortunately my GPS at the time would only do data logging so we could not make a separate file for him to post on the GPS site.

It cost us nothing and we both got a lot out of it.

Hah, that was me

I was just thinking about this Moby whilst reading Darvio's story. Thanks for a great arvo!
