Default Shipping windsurfing equipment

Hi, Have just got our visas for WA. Just wondering how easy it is to ship out my windsurfing equipment? I am an intermediate level at the moment and wondering where the best places to surf around perth area. Wondering also if anyone would want to meet up once we arrive Thanks Tim

We had no problem shipping my boards (twice ) just put them in the container.

No idea on sailing spots around Perth as we went to Melbourne

Thanks for that. Wasn't sure if they had to be specially cleaned etc.?
That's a shame you are in Melborne, how is the wind there?

Currently back in UK, but in Melbourne there is lots of wind on the bay.

Probably saw 100 kite surfers to every windsurfer though, it seemed that windsurfing was out of style. Be interesting to see what people say in regard to Perth area

I imagine your equipment needs to be cleaned well.I have seen lots of windsurfers up past Hillarys,Quinns and Mullaloo.You wont be alone doing it.

Thanks ValeSpark just as well we are going to Perth then, don't like to stand out in a crowd
Thanks irishbloo that sounds good, not that good at the moment so will blend in well if there are lots of people out on the water
Thanks again Tim
