Peter, thanks for your response on how to sail with no fin. I'm going to
ABK trick camp next week, so I'll ask for fin first sailing instructions.
Yes, a real park at the Albany bulb is, I guess, a ways off. What they do
have is a nice little parking area with landscaping near it and the
beginning of a walk way. The rest of it that I saw yesterday was the
same--old road path along the south facing shore back to the parking lot. I
knew that good path was there when I was drifting in, so I wasn't worried
about having to walk rough terrain once I got to shore. The other thing
I've noticed about the bulb is a lot more sculpture at the cove across from
the radio station.
I'm not sure where you'd go with windsurfing amenities because the parking
is all basically at the race track. In a WSW, you'd need to walk your gear
up the bulb. Unless it's really southerly, it would be difficult to launch
off the beach, because the beach is cupped in by an outcropping to the
south--maybe if you launched just below that outcropping it would work.
Then you could launch near where you parked. Have you tried it? And do you
want to leave your car there? There were people doing donuts in the parking
lot (not the little lot reserved for the park, but the big lot where you'd
park to launch at the beach).
