The Treasure Coast spans the east coast of Florida roughly from Jupiter to Vero Beach. It derives it's name from a Spanish treasure fleet that was lost during a hurricane in 1715. Their are a lot of great windsurfing spots on the Treasure Coast but this blog focuses mainly on the Indian River from Stuart to Jensen Beach.

Tuesday I was on the water at 5:00 Tom, Craig and Eugene were there. I rigged a 6.0 on my 88L board and headed out to the House of Refuge. The first 45 minutes were great, flat water and some nice gusts coming through. I was able to make some nice jibes and then the wind seemed to back off. I headed back and switched to my 118L. I buzzed up and down the channel a few times and then went under the bridge and headed for the Jensen causeway. The wind came back up and I had plenty of power and speed. I jibed at the causeway and headed south as the sun was setting. What a great way to end the day. When I got back to the island Eugene was there and we de-rigged as the moon was coming up.
