Looking good for winds in NH and ME this Wednesday. Never windsured up there. Any suggestions for NE wind? Hampton Beach / Rye?
My usual waters are MA, RI, CT. But they do not look good as low will sit right over that area.

Saco bay, from Pine Point to Camp Ellis. E is down the line at Pine Point, Ne is down the line in OOB, pier, sandbars.

Moody beach and York harbor were popular spots because the predominate south winds would hit them cleanly. The land has a drastic effect on any winds with a westerly component up here. Gusty and shifty.
Pine Point faces due south, and Hills Beach almost due north, so Saco Bay has the most opportunities. Wednesday and Thursday was NNE, so Bay View ended up being the spot for side shore conditions.

Well the Hampton Harbor was the place to go W wind at low tide its like glass, but the town went nuts and put up no parking sighs everywhere forcing people to go to the pay areas. Hurts the windsurfers the most.
