Accelerated trade wind at northeast corner

Experience
First-hand remote candidate — approximate pin and local permission required
Hazards
Remote first-hand candidate with approximate coordinates, reef-pass exposure, high-tide chop, little established foil support and a need for village permission and self-rescue planning.
“A first-hand family report documents daily wingfoil sessions for a week at the northeast corner of Gaua's north lagoon, describing regular accelerated trade wind, more chop at high tide and smoother water at low tide. The authors say these were the first wingfoils seen locally. Pin is an approximate lagoon-corner estimate because the report supplies no coordinates; this is a remote community candidate requiring village permission, reef-pass knowledge and self-rescue planning. Requested-field batch 02 verified 2026-08-01: hazards and exact-versus-nearby resource relationships were derived only from cited row sources; unresolved fields remain explicit.”
