The Essex Windsurfing Club was
formed Over 25 years ago.
Formely the "Chalkwell Windsurfing Club" it was formed by a
group of like minded windsurfers sailing heavy long boards
with one sail to choose from. In the early days of the force

in any more wind) the sport
clashed with other beach users,the council
was
threatening a ban.
With the backing of the RYA contact was made
with the council and a voluntary code of
conduct was agreed to stick to the designated
beaches in the summer months, I.e Chalkwell,
Thorpe Bay and East Beach.
