Hey guys, it appears that today our very own speed genius Dave Morehead Aus 02 has done over 45 knots at Sandy Point. Big congrates Dave that is sooooo faaasst.
His GPS display was over 46 knots.
Thanks guys, good to break the 45 knot barrier!! Sailing at Doran's is certainly good practice. Felt like there was more to be had if there had been a bit more wind!!
"Sailing at Doran's is certainly good practice".
Well done Dave, good old Dorans, we always bag it but it's our little wind haven. Keep up with the blasting Dave, you'll be the fastest man on Earth!
or maybe you already are
I'm going to guess and go off the GPS team challenge site and say Slowboat's 50.09 knts.
But I could be wrong!
Johno, you testing my computor skills, easy, even I can do that, 50knots, looks like Tassie has got a bit to go to knock that off. What is the world record?
Yep that sounds right. Kiters have gone much faster. Apparently theres this German guy who is about 40 and lives with his mum. He kites on flooded paddocks and regulary breaks 50 knots.
Here is my max speed on the dial ...
My 500m was 42.03 knots, which is the official distance for world speed records.
I'm sure the glow in the Northern horizon from here is the beaming smile that's still on Dave's face
Buzzy you dont know half of it
We realy need a Burkha (is that how you spell it) to put over Daves head just to calm down the glowplease send more spf 30 sunscreen, umbrellas etc and we might just survive
