@vikiii No, it just takes too much time to travel, set up the sails, derig the sails. You typically invest four hours for every 30 minutes of sailing.
These days people rarely use the old style windsurfers because they were really difficult to learn to ride properly. Learning to get back on the board in an open ocean and get going is quite tough and takes many hours. These days people are using kites and very light boards, and now the new thing is hydrofoil boards with even smaller kites. I haven't tried any of that either, but it looks fun.
