On October 19 I 'celebrated' me Mootha's 86th birthday by going for a windsurf on Grand Lake. The highlight of the day was an 8 km run on one tack. I more or less went from Pop's Point (think Princess Park) to the southern shore of Mill Cove. It was sunny, warm and there was enough wind to keep me planing.
With a west wind on Grand Lake it's feasible that you could go on a 25 km run across the lake. I'm not sure I'd ever trust the wind to take me that far, and more importantly......back!
A trip like that is known as a surfari, and it's a tantalizing thought. Maybe next year. This year is all but done.
