Sailing

The sailing culture in my little land-locked destination looks less than vibrant. This lone and relatively random flickr picture seems to be the only evidence on the entire internet that anyone from Rwanda has even heard of sailing:

Canoe sailing on Lake Kivu, off the shore of Gisenyi, Rwanda.
I'm sure I'm going to have to be creative with the available equipment over there, but there have got to be some cheap and sharable ways to get out on the water, which I will definitely explore if by some stroke of grace I'm placed near a lake. Based solely on the picture above, canoe sailing looks like it could be a perfect mix of dinghy sailing and windsurfing principles.
We'll see we'll see.
