Ok might seem funny, people may have done it... but im gunna ask anyway... anyone been Windsurfing/Sailboarding on Lake Eyre? Im packing up the misses and kids and heading up there May/June (thought id plan early).
I thought it would be a bit of an experience throwing the boards and sails in and having a blast on the lake which is predicted to be 6 mtrs by late summer.
Anyone else keen? anyone have an tips? especially if they have been. I might just have to contact the Lake Eyre Yacht club if I cant get any input 
thanks in advance
Susie went up there several years ago and sailed somewhere - dont think it was deep enough to use a fin if I remeber correctly
There are some photos in the seabreeze archives somewhere
Sounds like a great adventure - my wifes been talking about paddling the standups on the lake - just don't think I'd make it in the old commode.
Yetti, I was there in mid October last year 2010. I went out from Williams Creek crossing in from Coober Pedy end. Too shallow
, and from what the locals said, the sailing is done further South East and entry from Birdsville side. I did take some kit, just in case. The water sure is salty, I even tasted it
Ah ok, thanks guys, I had a bit of a look at the Lake Eyre yacht clubs website (they had a regatta in july 2010) and it I found some guys in Cats and also some kite surfing, 
It might be too shallow, but i reckon the locals might lead me in the right direction. I think you might need a 4wd to get in as well russh, lucky i just picked myself up a cruiser
. I reckon i'll take the standup just in case too....
this is their website in anyone is interested.
