I haven't been there in years, but the sound used to be quite shallow (knee to wast deep but quickly getting more shallow so it was best to use a weed or swept back fin in case you ran aground) and about the only place you could sail the sound was towards the middle of the island. There used to be a windsuring shop towards the Northern east end of Emerald Isle (MIddle of island but then it becomes another name, perhaps Atlantic Beach) which allowed you to put in. Alos, there used to at one public boat ramp on the sound side. Ocean is good with the correct wind direction (i.e. SW).
