Pin's Windrider 17 Sailing Webpage

 

This is a new webpage delicated to my first sailboat, Windrider 17. This is my first boat owning experience. Quite a lot of new things to learn, but that's the challenge that attracted me into sailing.

I'm looking for other Windrider owners in my area who would be interested in racing. Usually I sails in Cook's Bay on Lake Simcoe, Ontario, Canada. Please feel free to contact me.
