Nassau in Nov.

mocean · #1 08-26-2007, 07:33 PM

the reason I'm going to another island in November is because I want to show more of the Bahamas than just Nassau to my KB students.
The place you will be comenly be riding in Nov will be goodmans bay, launch from the jetski ramp and ride up wind to goslow or launch at goslow (gnarley launch)
goodmans is good from west to NE.
if the wind is ENE you will be going to Yamacraw if the wind is more east and you want flat water you will be going to south beach end of blue hill rd.
you will see why we are having this discussion about goslow when you get here if you get here.
The hotel I send students and riders to is Orangehill tellem aj sent you and you will get 10% off.(www.orangehill.com)
get a tourist map when you get to the Nassau airport and drive on the left side good luck.
if you want to come riding to spanish wells look up fasrferries bahamas and come down.

Just checking back in to see how the wind has been. What kite sizes have you been riding lately. I know I should take them all, but the wife will be taking plenty of shoes!
Anyone that is up for a session let me know. We will be there the first week of Nov.
Thanks again Aj for the suggestions on riding spots. Hope things work out driving on the left hand side of the road. Never done that before.

Yeah, bummer time to have a possible hurricane roll through. Figures. You have to plan these things months in advance so you never get what you want. Utah doesn't get this kind of stuff, so I'll have to see what effect that has on the wind for the following week. Any thoughts? Is it calm after the storm, wind wise, with just residual rain? We arrive late Thurs. so I'm hoping to miss the heavy stuff. Still have to find other things to do if it rains the rest of the week.
