Jim, I had a blast and thanks for the recommendation, as Meredith would not have worked at all. I was able to make a pre-run up to see the place and talk with Dave at Fay's, very nice guy. First day out wind forecast was for 10mph 1' waves and was just right for getting my brothers kids, 8-7 & 5 accustom to what Hobie sailing is all about and they all loved flying a hull. We had their power boat so I never had to go back to shore and when kids were done, my younger brother and I finished out the day together for a total of 6 1/2 hrs on the water. 2 days later my older brother and I went out with 25mph forecast, gusts to 30 and 2-4 foot waves, I was able to give him 2 hrs of some real fun, flying hulls and braking waves. I still have a big smile on my face. I'll gladly make the 13hr drive back again, as Winnipesaukee is a great lake to have fun on.
Thanks again!
