Had a few of the Perth crew down today to have a bit of a play on Hardies.

Unfortunately the wind wasn't all that strong to achieve any serious speeds but some of thew boys gave the distance thing a nudge today.

Bender has already Posted a 128km, Snides when I left was heading in that direction and the standout for the day for distance would be Claude.

Claude was doing +7km legs (each way) and was often disappearing over the horizon! I think most of the day he forgot where the shore was as we hardly ever saw him come back to the cars. Hanging to see what he posts.

Matt took the day out for top speed with a 34.9 on the clock, sorry mate I don't know what distance you clocked up.

It was a great session and I think everybody went home sore but happy.

Steve, How many km's did you knock up on the big Isonic?? sounds like it was definitely a winner for you

When I left you you had 50 odd Nm's up on the dial at 1530

Well done

gday Alby,
went 105.5 nmiles so aprox the same again
just checked the gps had an ave speed of 12.92 knots for 8hrs including the stops for gear changes and lunch.walked out of the water at about 6.30...
worked out just 1 more run out to the platform would have gone over 200k's
a couple of further stats Alby- counted 80 gybes 79 of them dry.
longest run was 6.07k's, longest shlog was on the ca50 - 3.7k's

You smug Basket (Gybeman)

Congrats on the PB's I noted that you almost cracked the 30 on Nm as well Not bad for not being properly powered up.

Well done on the 23 alpha, was that one of the one I was watching you do on the CA in close?

Did you get any Idea of what Matt recorded

nup.. the top 4 alphas where all about 400 meters east of the launch earlier- still on the carbon art sp 5o, (this board is f@#$ing awesome!!!)...
yet to speak to Matt but i have a feeling he may of got a good mile...watched him get a long fast run deep into hardies.

I followed Matt on a couple of runs and he had the speed for a +30

He's probably still muttering "so flat, so flat"
