That would be great for alpha's be easy to judge the 50m divergence thing.

Does anyone own a D10 dozer or an excavator?
It wouldn't take much to build a Speed canal,all that is needed is the right spot in terms of a level site,close to the beach to pump water.................if you built something like this in europe you could have two side by side so the sailors sail down one of the canals jibe around a roundabout and back up the other to their starting point.Aa well as bar,restraunt,(might as well throw in a golf course)charge an admission fee and have it open to thousands of keen euro sailors

when all those houses on collaroy beach wash away we can build a speed canal there

I don't own a D10, but I think I've found the guy who could dig a canal for you. Check out:

The article does say the guy is/was a developer. Put up a sound economic model and he's sure to be interested. What is the size of the speedsailing market in Sth East Aus.?
