The Board Lady.

Eva-M. Hollamann aka The Board Lady has "answers to all the questions you never knew you should have asked about Epoxy board repairs." Her site is awesome. A big mahalo to SurfingSports for pointing me her way.

Eva loves to windsurf.
"Within the first couple of minutes I knew that I was going to windsurf for the rest of my life."

Hell yeah, she paddles too!

Score! Project L'orange Canard Update

Banshee boom, mast, and foils.

I went to get the boom, mast and sail I saw on Craigslist in San Leandro today. Sigh, Brian sold the sail to someone else  who snuck in ahead of me after I posted my find on the Yahoo Banshee forum (I most have been hit in the head too many times by the boom. I should have waited after I bought the items to post.) However I did score on foils that he had hidden in the dark, dank reaches of his garage.

I'm almost there. Now I need a sail and a doughnut.

Project L'Orange Peeler. Progress Report.

Old Banshee Dinghy
This is what she looked like back in December when I found her abandoned by her previous owner on Channel Street.

Project Duck
This is what she looks like today after 2 days of work.
Now that the sun has returned and the rain has been bansihed to parts unknown I can work full steam ahead. Hopefully she will be in the water by June....then I can start building the Sabre.

sidenote: It's tough not having a garage where I can work on her.
