WARNING!
No PB is worth a life as a quadraplegic or no life at all.
In WA in search of flat water and new PBs, sailors are now sailing in very shallow water which has recently been exacerbated by extreme low tides.

Do not sail at speed in water if you are not certain there is sufficient clearance for your fin or if there is a possibility of hitting projections (rocks etc).

Lots of PBs on big Tuesday.

Well done to you all those who improved their PBs. There were some big movers with Brayden outdoing everyone by upping his PB around 5 knots!!

[edit] 22.2.2010 Sorry Jet for not updating your PB. I knew i'd forgotten someone...just could not remember who.

Also Jeff (Hardpole) celebrated his first day on his green machine (CA53) with a new PB yesterday while Troppo also enjoyed a PB with the help of a borrowed CA53 at the same locale.

troppo got a 37 PB on sunday at melville

Hey Yoyo
My 2/2/10 port tack speed was on a Tectonics Falcon F1 26 fin - not a KA 23 (starboard tack) assy!
Cheers

Talked to Ben at Pt Walter on Sunday... he said he got 37... It seemed to be the limit as 4 of us were around that mark. Usually the 2 sec is ~0.20-0.25 less (eg Whitey got 37.1 on the dial but posted a 2 sec of 36.88) but I will go with what Troppo posted on GPSTC.

Yeh I was gonna ask you about that...seemed a bit odd running a starboard tack assy at port tack Wallyworld!

Pete's done some pretty fast runs coming back towards the jetty on starboard. The wind really cranks there.

yeah it was 37 at point walter. doppler took it down .28 of a knot
