Yeah I remember that day. A lot of people took off and never made it around the first buoy. It took Brian Eagle an hour to set 1 buoy. That was a sick Border Cross.

No reason why we can't put together another 2 part Kite Masters Race.

I agree Mr. Moore, just want to make sure I'll have another chance at tackling the DW!!! LOL!!!

Let me know if I can help.

Would love to help but not much I can do from up here in PC. IF you guys need some website hosting I have some free credits with Godaddy.com, might be able to help you with that!

a buddy & i wuz brainstorming and eggmont key came up.
the ferry runs 2wice a day!

Bayflight, Eggmont would be cool but way too many sharks out there in the channel. I know people ride from NB to Eggmont when the wind is right and I'm dumb enough to race to it. I guess if you started up North and ended at Eggmont, that would work. My boat holds 6 plus gear for the ride back, if I can convince my girlfriend to drive.

I've gone out to eggmont and back B4 ( on a big windsurfer ) on NW winds from NB. Also done recon with the boat around the island alot. Bottom line is that it won't work. West side is totally unlaunchable/landable, and east side U R restricted to a small patch of sand on the north side since the rest of the island is quarantined by rangers.

Basically the only place you could even be allowed would B the NE corner of the island where the ferry goes and it would have to Bee a N, NE or E wind
with a alot of coordination launching/landing kites

The South corner would B cool since its a big sand bar but its off limits
