Heading out to the point at Maple Bay is always a gamble if you don’t have a boat. There was a slight breeze enough to make me nervous that we wouldn’t have enough wind to ride. The family decided to venture with me. From the parking area its a good 45 minute to an hour hike. You hike through the woods to the beach then along the coast up to the point. There was a bad storm about a month ago that left a numerous trees down. This made the adventure a bit more challenging.
We made it to the point to see Matt coming in overpowered on his 15m Liquid Force Solo. My face turned into a giant smile. Matt let me borrow his gear and I wound up riding the 15m for the rest of the day. It was a blast. The water was a perfect temperature. There were a ton of boats out celebrating the Labor Day weekend. It got a little congested but it was a great group of kiters and boaters. Everyone was having a blast.
