Windsurfing

Statia Sound, in the lee of a large natural reef, features flat water to a mild chop. Near constant tradewinds, 250 days a year, help beginners get up and go and offer advanced windsurfers plenty of force to shred.

In addition to the windsurfing gear in the Club fleet, we offer courses and an intensive Learn to Windsurf Adventure Package at the Sailing School.


Windsurfing Fleet
As part of the Club Fleet, our sail inventory includes Aerotech Dacron sails ranging in size from 2.0m to 6.2m. These sails are great for kids, beginners and intermediate surfers. Beginners and Intermediates will enjoy the Hi Fly Primo Wide Style Boards, recognized as the standard in the teaching industry. We also have the popular Mistral Energizer, Flow 266, Malibu, Protege, and Bic Techno 283 windsurfers.

The high performance windsurfing fleet includes a selection of Monofilm Carnless sails featuring North booms and Fiberspar masts, sails ranging from 5.0m to 7.5m, top of the line Mistral Superlights IIs and Explosions, and the popular Bic Techno one design board.
