The Peconic Puffin

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

We race.  We freestyle.  We SUP.   The good times they do roll.

The fifth annual East Coast Windsurfing Festival takes place June 9-10 at Joe's Beach in Heckscher State Park on Long Island.   His Highness The King of the East Mike Burns hath said it is so, and Master of Racing Ceremonies MC T-Bone Thom hath seconded the decree.

So it is so.

6a00d8341c890753ef0147e2f85c07970b-piTo register, send Mike Burns an e-mail and say "I'm coming" and "I'm gonna (race, freestyle, or both)."

To learn more, check out the East Coast Windsurfing Festival web site.

For a dubious accounting of the previous four ECWF's, read the Peconic Puffin's coverage of the East Coast Windsurfing Festival through the ages.

June 9-10…save the dates!

    Looks like Pete the Terminator is back with a vengeance.
    First Raceboard practice of the season revealed that he’s got the most powerful kit (Josh’s PWA tour setup from 2011) and the muscle to hold it down into the low 20s – that’s an 8.7m on a 80cm slalom board!

    but what happens when it only blows 8 or so? I, for one, will be praying for light wind for racing.
