So you think you're fast?

Step up to the plate next month and see if you've got the right stuff:

500 meter course off Crissy you choose your point of sail. June 15-18.

It's open to all sail powered vessels.

My neighbor's going to be on a planing boat (Wylie Cat), other's on windsurfers, who's going to represent kiters?

It's all so close it could be anyone's race and depend upon the conditions.

But if I had to bet I would place it on windsurfers as they still have the world speed record of 48.70kts (http://www.sailspeedrecords.com/500.html).

Sounds like a drug problem! :wink:


Does sound like a fun event though. I may consider it.
