It is hard to capture this from the raw data, but I'd think it would be hard to beat the effort of Jacques Kint who with no sailing or windsurfing experience before he began a bit less than two years ago, has gone from 104th ranked in Australia on GTC in 2009 to 10th this year!
And he capped it off yesterday by cracking what looks to be a speed record for Port Phillip bay of 40.13 knots, just beating Spotty's record at Rye in 2009!
