Bamboo board!
Bamboo mast with a sail made from found netting and palm leaves.
Off he goes.
Watch Bear build his bamboo windsurfer.
Watch him sail.

Chorus:
You want action? We've got action. Watch the video.
Sergey makes a mad dash across the bay, get's caught by the wind shadow of the South Tower, goes floating out the Gate, is barked at to get back up and sail!
Bow Wow!
God, I need to stop bitching about this place. Today was perfect.

Hooray, the sun is back!
The kite sailors were out in full force.
And some other guys showed up.
Who are they and what are those strange sailing contraptions they ride?

This is a cool weather vane.
Some where in the City, find it if you can.

Peter can I crash at your house? Brasil looks really appealing to me now!
Miguel, if you're old, then I'm old. Thank God we are not as old as Father Christmas!

From the archives, back when dinosaurs swam. Puffy wanted to see me in action. Now you know why you don't see more photos of me. It's one oops after another.

The Puffmeister!
"Take a picture! Take a picture!" I implored Peconic Jeff. All my teeth were where they belonged and the pain wasn't bad, so my focus was on getting a good photo for the blog.
Here is another tid bit from "He's a demented sailor who will sail anytime and anyplace."
Hard flat landing.
I do a painful split as my front leg slides towards the nose.
To reduce the weight behind the painful split, I smash my face into my 4.5.
Sliding slowly off of the gear (head goes underwater, now an ice cream headache accompanies the pain in my right leg and taste of blood in my mouth) it occurs to me that I've had a fine last session of the year, and perhaps I should call it a day. So I did.
I need a scotch folks, so excuse me while I exit stage left towards the bar to raise a glass to, "The Baddest Blogging Sailor Around," Michael Alex! .....Okay, Jeff you're pretty bad too!
