Windsurfers in the Scudder Plaza pool at the Woodrow Wilson School were featured on the cover of the Oct. 24, 1984, PAW. The late Larry Wolfen ’87 took the photo of these unidentified members of Princeton’s sailing club, who were trying to stir up interest in their organization. Can anyone name these surfers or say whether they cruised on to deeper waters?

I was delighted to see a picture of our “prank,” which graced the cover of the PAW back in 1984, in the April 2 From the Archives feature. I am the sailor on #287811, and Rob Schoelkopf ’86 is sailing #287820. Kathryn Bowsher ’87 is walking along the edge of the pool for “shore support.” While I still own a windsurfer, I spend more time sailing on bigger boats in Santa Barbara, such as the Santa Cruz 52, Prevail, on which I raced to Hawaii in the 2011 Transpac Regatta.
