Wow that's early. Probably before I started windsurfing tbh. I did do the event when dieter brought it back to life early 90's. awesome vid! What else have you got. Good to see the history.

That's where it all began for me. Thanks for sharing. Caloundra, Mooloolaba, Maroochydore back in the late 80's to 90's Course racing at the Caloundra sailing club on Saturday's. Caloundra ocean marathon. Vitamin Sea, Sunshine Coast Sailboards, Les Purcell, JV sails. Good times drag racing along the sand banks and wave sailing the Bar.
