That is the best, and worth keeping originals forever.. A part of sailboarding history worldwide!!!
I say well done Peter!.
Peter comes to Tassie every few months to catch up with family up north Tas.
He is still running a windsurfing business manufacturing boards and selling components.
Peter Nitschke drops into Launceston and Southern Tas every summer with a van full of gear if you want to catch up....
I am sure he has plenty of stories of the early days...

Thanks Damian, i'm Sure Pete would be happy to share his stories. The articles I posted are from his exposition of the sport up & down the east coast in the 70's with my Uncle Mike, who's still building & his friend from Germany, Manfred.
This ground work promoted the sport in Australia & led to the first commercial import of windsurfer boards from Europe for sale in Tasmania.
