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.

Surprisingly good afternoon sail.
The wind these past three weeks has been lacking, to say the least. When SUP starts looking like an exciting sport you know the wind has been light for too long. Today was forecast to be the same but for some reason around 3:00 the wind switched from a light west wind to south at 18 to 23 mph and stayed up for almost 4 hours. Dino. Ron and Dick were on the water when I arrived at 5:00. I rigged a 7.0 on the Bic and was nicely powered, it was a fun afternoon.
