Last Friday many established and experienced GPSTC sailors achieved speed PBs at a new spot them, Harrington NSW on the mid north coast. There was incredible weather with strong winds and heavy rain caused by a deep low pressure system off the coast.
I was passing through so pulled off the highway to take some video. I could not go sailing myself as I didn't have the time. The video been put together in a short clip with some music I've put together, to get around the utube copyright/3rd party nasty emails. Pretty difficult filming conditions. The tripod was on a concrete path ontop of the breakwall. The wind kept blowing it around. I tried getting onto the beach to take video from a different vantage point but was sandblasted back to the breakwall. The video has already been posted in the NSW forum. I think its relevant here too. Its not every day that GPSTC sailors who have posted ten or twenty thousand kms get a speed PB.
Congrats on the speeds..All are amazing especially Byrons 41.99kts ! I'll leave those speeds up to you guys...
