I recently connected to the yahoo group hoping to find help as I get into the sport of Windsurfing. I purchased a board last September off craigslist and received a couple sails with the board. However, he didn't have a mast and boom with it.
Does anyone have a mast and boom to sell. How do I know if it will fit the fitting on the board?
Any help and information would be welcome.

Website looks good.

Hello Katey
Could you check the sail bags for measures? Look for the number listed as "luff" and the number listed as "boom". Post these numbers on the Yahoo group with your inquiry and the sail's brand/model. I am sure someone may have a mast and a boom of the right size.

Hi Katey,
I have a broad selection of both new (at good prices) and used (at cheaper prices)... masts and booms. All sizes. I can definitely get you rigged up. I can give you rigging tips and help suggest gear to match and coordinate best with what you already have... and that will help you get through the entry level phases.

Hi Greg, i met a guy named frank kaplan who said to contact you. He helped me try to set up an early 90s windsurfing sail system. We discovered that my boom is not long enough for a 9 meter sail. Wondering if you have boom extensions for an art boom,aluminum, german made? Or another solution?

Thanks.
Scott

Hello,

I am reaching out to find out the executive director or leader of your organization?
The Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO) is completing a study of recreational assets of statewide significance. This study will include nearly all types of outdoor recreation in the state along with a gap analysis, and investment recommendations to fill these gaps. This study is due to the legislature by June 30, 2019. Taking this survey will help us identify “exceptional” assets of statewide significance. We are asking representatives from user groups to take this survey and indicate your availability for a follow-up interview. We also want to hear from recreationists who want to recommend an organization for us to contact. Thanks in advance.

Your responses to the survey will be used in planning for our State's continued enjoyment of its natural resources and strategic sustainability for future generations.

Please forward me the appropriate contact (name, phone number, email) to forward the survey at your earliest
convenience.

In appreciation,

Hi All,
I met Mike H yesterday down at Denny, who gave me great intel on set up to WindFoil. Big Winds is out of the Wizard 125 package that Mike had mentioned, so I am wondering if anyone knows of any used gear like a 125 Wizard and a V3 Foil with an Infinity 76 wing? Thanks a lot. Chris
