Hey AJ,

Grab some pictures if you can. I remember hearing about Spanish Wells in high school but have yet to get there. Do they have sand beaches without rock rims there for easy launching/landing?

Have fun!

you would sh$t your self if you saw how prity this area is.
the beaches are great as well as the secluded riding .
Virgin waters for kiteboarding.
I'll get a few pics and load them on kitebeaches before karen claimes the spot as her own.
the wireless internet rocks on the whole island as well.

Do you think you could ride off the beach along the north shore and out past the reef for some wave riding?

The beach, I think?

Last question, what winds do you think it would be rideable in? It looks like it might be sheltered from easterly winds and might have to wait for west to north to northeast winds at least off that huge northern beach?

I remember it was a shipwrights basin, maybe because of the good anchorage characteristics?

Thanks,

I'm taking a bunch of photos and makin notes of locations.
winter would be the best time .(when the wind is ENE N NNW)
haven;t been invited to any white supremecy meetings...there are heaps of black people here in the day - i dont; think they stick around after dark though.

that pic above this post is an area called 14th st
the vid clips I took are beaches NW facing easy to get to on spanish wells.
by golf cart , I will be doing day trips from nassau this winter.
I did not get to the inside area between eluthera and spanish wells yet , but that to would be an awsome spot to ride in.
