In The Shop

Yes , it's been too long since the Expedition Windsurfer has seen water under the keel. The issue is that for some strange reason I need to work for a living. That does not leave me much time to play. Know what I mean?
Here is the latest;
1. I have the drawings for the new and much enhanced version of the Expedition Windsurfer. My friend Matt Layden has done a fantastic job with the design. Check him out at http://www.microcruising.com/pictures.htm
He is also been the focus of an article in the latest issue of the magazine," Small Craft Advisor".
2. I have been hard at work in the shop getting the next version built. If the design works well we will find a manufacturer and offer the Expedition Windsurfer to those who want some adventure in their lives. But that is still down the road a ways.
3. I was asked by a few folks if I would send them instructions on how to build the board. Like Ettore here. " Hi Trey,I read your article on the windsurfing mag. I really like what you have done with your windsurfing expedition. I live in Maui and I always wanted to built a board for camping trips. Would it be possible for you to share how to built one.AlohaEttore" The short answer is yes I will offer the plans to those who like to build their own toys, but not until I have the design right.
4. Longboard Windsurfing Journal published my story " A windsurfer's guide to Cayo Costa and Cabbage Key" Check it out here http://www.lbwindsurfing.com/
Thanks to all of you for your interest in the Expedition Windsurfer.
Great Adventures,
Trey

Jared and The EXP on TV

Last week when my son Jared and I went windsurfing at Ft. Desoto he made the news. Check out the video here. http://www.myfoxtampabay.com/dpp/sports/chris_crafts/Chris_crafts_tampa_bay_water_060509

It is just a brief shot, but Jared looks good on the Expedition Windsurfer.

Great Adventures,
Trey
