WOW! Great session!
What was the wind strength and direction (angle)?
I guess you guys can get a straight run Nautical Mile. Not many places to do that...

The wind was approx 20-30 SSW

Hardie has found a straight line Nm which has a nice consistent bear away over the full run of about 2km, it's a bit softer angle than the straight speed run but more consistent over the distance.

The wind angle can change a bit as we don't have to run next to a sand bank, ours is open water weed flats, so you can pretty much pick your spot to attack when you see the gust coming.

The down side's we have is that you have to use weed fins, the waters shallow (some guys were depth checking with 30cm fins), for the uninitiated it can be a bit daunting blasting along seeing fin trails through the weed banks.

Awesome run you lot

Elmo don't be so modest bloody good run mate I would be very proud of the 38's

Mate you must have perfected the fine art of tacking looking at the tracks.

Elmo , congrats. Pity you could not have got another 0.2 on the dial and same goes for Pete.. he came so close to knocking Slowie back to 2nd as fastest gun in the west.

ummm nebs great effort! if you can allow me to offer a tip? sail broader...more often

p.s-power gives way to sail unless its a commercial vessel like a ferry or similar

Or put on a 14kg weight belt

now that would be interesting to see how you would make it buoyant!! you would have to strap a bean bag to something...i struggle with 9 but does it make a difference

disclaimer-doctor snides recomends you do not strap lead to yourself when you go sailing...clinical studies suggest it may not be good for ones general well being when immersed.

Special day, spewing I missed it.......

Congrats to everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's on the map now, hope it doesn't get spoiled???
