Yep, these people ruined my life all right. Newman Darby or Chilvers or Bob the Ape may have invented the sport, but these two brought it to light. I was on my way to a Major League Baseball career, or winning the America's Cup... yeah right. Until I saw one of those things... and met Hoyle and Diane Schweitzer.

Hoyle Schweitzer sailing the first marconi rigged wishbone board called the SK8. The word Windsurfer did not come until later, coined by a friend.

But it was their son, Matt, in Boy's Life, that set my path on fire. Who set yours?
