Great effort by Cocky Pete of the Sunshine Coast Vikings to be the first in the GPSTC to clock 50K at a phenomenal rate!

Astonishing! Easy to spot on the lake, you're the one going about twice as quick as everybody else. Congratulations

Far out.

Only 50,000 to go!

Congrats Peter, in just under 4 years...!

Pete has certainly owned this category, thing is his home spot is not as windy as brisbane or many other places & is quite gusty, if it was more consistent this number would be quite a bit higher.

Next stop 100k.

Benefits of big lake nearby.

Congratulation Assuming average 20 knots it means 1388 hours sailing or 57 days !

or 6 trips across the ditch to New Zealand and back ( 4163km each way)
