Murphy's laws about windsurfers.

There are windsurfers considerably more in the world, than you think - you just are on irregular spots.
There are windsurfers considerably less in the world, than you think - you just meet the same people, but with a difference equipment.

Murphy's laws about sailing.

When you decide to drive to the "spot" in the car with your friends, there is no room left for your surfboard.
When something breaks while surfing, it is something you rented or borrowed from your friend.
All parts of your equipment never fit the situation (for instance, the sail is too big or too small, it is too hot or too cold on the water).
Even if there is only one sandbank (underwater obstacle) on the whole spot, you are sure to be there. ( "Law of destiny").
The mast breaks exactly at the moment when you are the furthest away from the bank and your friends.

To be continued ...

Only for surfers!
