I'm new - Need advice 2 Years, 1 Month ago Karma: 0  
Hi all,

I'm new to windsurfing - I went on holiday to Dahab early this year and caught the bug and have been itching to go again since. Today i bought my own gear and i'm living in Bournemouth so i'm thinking...poole harbour ASAP.

I'm ok with the windsurfing, I had a weeks tuition so I know the basics. I bought a Bic Vivace board, and 5 sails of various sizes, the best being the Tushingham Ken Black 6.5m2. Also I have a mast, booms and all the other accessories to get me going. I've not rigged a sail up before - is there a good book I can buy (tricktionary??) or a good online guide to teach me this? I dont know all the terminology (dont even know what 'luff' is) and have no experience in sailing so I need to learn the basics.

Thanks for any advice. Also any other beginner/intermediates in bournemouth??
