I decided last minute to take a trip out to the Washington coast to try to do some landsailing. The Grayland area has a nice beach designated for landsailing. I researched the tide charts, wind and weather conditions. Lining up low tide (more beach) and the afternoon wind worked right for the time I choose. I also wanted to go before Memorial day to have less people on the beach. I found a nice campsite about a mile from the beach access. You can drive vehicle's over the beach making it easy to set up your landsailer. I found the wind to be super steady both days. The first day it was a North side wind making for many tacks and jibes. The second day was more of a reach day. It's not as fast as sailing on a dry lake but still a lot of fun. The speed limit is 25 mph. I claim the 5th. While I was there I surfed in the mornings before the wind came up. My days consisted of surf, shower, lunch, landsail and dinner. Needless to say I slept well at night. I had a lot of interest in the Mini Skeeter. The area is a commercial fishing port. Good fresh seafood. It was very low key and the people were nice. I decided to make an instructional video too.
