Beach Sailing at 30 knots

BajaGordon - 3-22-2010 at 02:15 PM

I want to invite you windsurfers and sailors to try beach sailing in Punta Banda. We have a world-class sailing beach (4+ Miles) and with a bit of practice you can be sailing down the beach in excess of 30 knots--quite a lot of fun, often with one wheel in the air. You have never felt more connected to the wind and beach. Current sailing conditions. Latest Sailing News

Seems like every time this guy has a post it's advertizing something. I don't know why he has not been kicked out of here. Also, he does not respond to any questions, etc.

Aug-dec is a quiet time in Ensenada. Are there any flat spots on which to set sail?

I have never accepted (or been offered) a penny for giving beach sailing rides...it is a sport waiting to take off--literally.

If there were more people enjoying the wind and the beach, there would be fewer grumpy folks out there!

Beach sailing, motorcycle thrills and safer than a bicycle.

I have a hard time believing this since all of your initial posts are advertising something - and it just can't be free.

You know Bob, I have always been a bit thick when it comes to making money--but I have always been open and gracious in sharing my passions and projects.

For pure fun, sailing Kwikat is right up there with riding off-road motorcycles in Baja--which I loved. My last great ride bike was prerunning the entire Baja 2000 with five friends.

Keep in mind I designed and built Kwikat. My goal was to build the best beach sailer in the world.

In my world, charging a few bucks for a ride seems incidental compared to introducing a newbie to the delights of beach sailing--and especially Kwikat.

Can you think of another vehicle that drives (or sails) equally well on two or three wheels? It's like having a trike that transitions to a bike at speed. Sliding a sail-powered bike is really fun!

When Kwikat moves beyond a hobby to become a business, I will be delighted to charge you for a ride Bob.
