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.

Hatteras Island
Yesterday the wind came up out of the SW and I sailed with two other windsurfers on a 7.0. It was warm, sunny and a pleasent ride. Last nite the wind changed direction and around 3:00am gusts were hitting 30+ out of the NW. In the morning the skies became mostly sunny with the temperature in the low 60's. At 7:30am I was on the water on a 4.7 but the wind was dropping fast. So I rigged a 6.0 and was out till 9:00. It was fun because you were sailing parallel to shore instead heading out into the great void of Pamilico Sound.
