He utimately was able to find his pot of gold, wheh Fisher landed on the beach after his successful windsurf trip from Marina Del Rey, California. This was the first time someone windsurfed across the Pacific. A Frenchman successfully windsurfed across the Atlantic about ten tears prior to Fisher's journey from New York to France.
