Rigging is just one of those things a windsurfer has to deal with.  Proper rigging can make or break a windsurfing session, and one small variation in the adjustment of your windsurfing equipment might ruin your day. 

Boards, sails, and masts are diverse creatures and they all function differently.  Regulate your gear in small increments, and when you find settings that you really like, write them down!

Where are the best Montreal windsurfing locations?  Valois Bay, Cartier, Pointe Claire Bay, Chateauquay, Vandreuil, and L’anse-A-L’orme are places to check the wind direction before you start your excursion, in addition to Plattsburgh Beach and Les Roche’s.  There are many other desirable spots as well—it just depends on how far you wish to travel. 

Many of these same spots are also optimal for kiteboarding, if someone in your group wishes to try something a little different that day.
