The Peconic Puffin

A blog about a group of windsurfers and other water sports enthusiasts, and their friends. Established 1993.

Pete says we lost the safety boat, so competition Saturday is off, despite the outstanding forecast for Saturday  (W 20-25 gusting to 30.)

If it blows true West or WNW, try Sebonac Inlet out east.

If it blows WSW Tiana (ocean) may be the call.

(To find Sebonac Inlet, Tiana, or any of the other great windsurfing launches on Long Island, check out our Long Island Windsurfing Map.)

    ABK was in town last weekend, and I heard all sorts of stories about you guys. I do think I need to stop thinking about it, and just come up there and sail with you guys!

    It’s all true, George. I’ve known Andy since 1998 and Radar Tom almost as long, and everything they say is true or worse. About LI sailors in general I refer you to Brendan’s famous quote “these people are crazy!”

    I would like to note here that the only reason I don’t refer to Scott as “Crazy Scott” in the Peconic Puffin is it doesn’t roll off the tongue as well as Peconic Jeff or Vulcan George or the Wolf etc. Then again neither does Lord Scotworth the Earl of Kielt (which I have called him to his face) but it feels better than Crazy Scott.
    If you don’t think he’s crazy, just ask the Wolf or P-Jeff. They’ll fill you in.
    Scott…are we sailing on Saturday? I may give it a go, right arm or no!
