WHATS THE BESTEST SUP TO SAIL BESIDES THE KONA ONE?
-
from another post-
i have the starboard 12 6 which is rigged up for windsurfing. I dont ws but the glide is amazing and much faster open paddle than the laird.
Cammar uses the smaller starboard the 12'2 and here is a clip that proves what this board can do

I just picked up a used Mistral Pacifico today. Any suggestions on where to get an inexpensive sail/mast/boom setup? I'm in south Orange County so we don't get much over 10kts in the afternoon. Once I'm rigged I'll report back & let you know how it sails. The board is 11'4" X 30" and is pretty light for it's size. Paddles pretty good too and it's got a soft deck & rails so it's good for taking beginners out on. Where are you guys sailing?
