Heh Gestalt...... if you are going to the bank and need a GPS..perhaps you need some one help you understand a road map..for the electronically challenged, or follow the person going....
or
is it fast money you need...
or
If it is speed you want measure and you are sailing then, perhaps if you are electronically challenged, I have some rope that you could tie knots in regually intervals and time how long it takes to pull the rope through your hands at speed and calculate it later...... could be hard on the 5 x10sec interval though...


Hope this has been of help ...lost of it...

cheers mate (might see you on the weekend)

the speedsters won't lend him one coz they all know he's faster than them, and he'll then have proof

btw - ii'd imagine if you drag netted the bottom for a while or checked on the side of the road you might find one

In follow with the offer from Sausage,
you will need some equipemnt if you are going to laydown the tracks for Alpha and 250mtr, 500mtr accurately. Feel free to use any of this...

In the event of big fins


Of course you will to time the runs over distance




Accurate information of the tracks is required




Again,
We all hope this advice is suitable for you

Our very best regards

Climber.......

i reckon the rope would need to be formuline for it to be accurate.

might need a fair bit for burrum. 4.5km to be precise.

i might drive via manly. i hear at manly the guys are so rich they just throw the things away.

haircut speaks the truth in spades.

been a while since going out to the strip. i was going to go take photos of the wave guys but current forecasts suggest VP.......

i have some spare speed boards if you are interested. a 90lt channel step hull and a 75lt old school needle. the video below was shot by haircut. the wind was 15-22 knots. not a whitecap in sight.
