37 knots on the watch? I don't doubt it he was motoring and lapping people on the third leg by the look of it.
I have this habit of running my harness lines a long way back and sailing with my front hand a long way forward. I always thought it wasn't the best thing to do but after watching this guy I feel a lot better about it.
He finished 8th out of 1200 in that race. The day before he did some great speeds in La Franqui, and currently ranks in seventh place on gps-speedsurfing. Andy Laufer used to be a PWA-sailor, but is somewhat semi-retired now. In the Bavarian Speed Challenge nobody ever comes close to him (well, o.k., that's maybe not a world-class event!)
I want to go ....one day
