I've been using a 10' windsurfer with a carbon fiber paddle and strap on my waterproof ipod and cruise around the bay and up into the mangroves. its really relaxing and with the elevated point of view its possible to see all sorts of marine life. the calm water helped me get a feel for my balance and now I'm starting to go out in the gulf looking for some long and low waves. Chesapeake Light Craft has paddleboard and longboard kits that I'm looking into building but i wonder if they not suited for stand up paddling. any ideas?

Another first, at least for Ft. Lauderdale. A rough three mile Standup chase into the Intracoastal Waterway starting and finishing at Coconuts by the Hall Of Fame. Nice turn out and good race. It is a part of the Hobie Standup Paddleboard Series organized by Liquid Surf & Sail, Tiki Beach and an army of volunteers. Lots more images to come but for now here's some ...
The start, finish off Coconuts and turning point in front of Lauderdale Yacht Club Lined up and ready to go! Paddling out hard from the start Heading south in front of Bahia Mar, Pier 66 in the distance Being in the lead is no picnic But it can be scenic A complete write up with more photos on the event to follow soon!
