Drift has emerged from the pack and taken the lead with a stunning ratio of 1.7883 set on Sunday.Allison must have inspired the lad to grit his teath and go for it.Imagine what he could have got if we sailed when the wind came in. Well done. Who,s next ![]()
So where is the speech from the man resplendant about how the puice coloured boom gave him the extra advantage over us retardant sailors using black booms.
Is he showing us his humilaty at being top of the table
Old salty, you yourself would know its a hard task to be a leader amongst men and women.
Whilst some people go for the fireworks and streamers, I am much more reserved and shy....
But really, I am doing it for the kids, if I can inspire one kid to pick up a yellow sail with a lilac coloured boom and race down the Inverloch speed strip, then my life's mission is complete!
He gonna have to do a music vid called Mick Music ![]()
I'll give this speed challenge a go, dunno how a 5.5m sail on a 165 ltr board will go though
Hi Echunda
I have got 26 kts on a 144 ltr barge so you can certainly get the feel for it on your equipment
A good idea but then do we complicate it too much.
I can see people then wanting sail size, body weight, competency, age(that's my benefit)
