Bigkym was flying along today at North Haven doing these big tail walk jumps. I ran to the car, grabbed the GPS, waved him down and plugged him in. Then the wind died and he sailed in that, so this was his slow run. The water was as choppy as Semaphore in a seabreeze:

Not bad for an intermediate hey !

Not bad at all

What software are you using to display those pictures?

Hi Neb. The software is called sailplay. It's home brew and free to anyone that wants it. The catch is it only runs on Unix systems. I've looked at converting it to Windose, but I CBF. There is a possible work around though.

PM me if anyone is interested, and I'll see what I can do :)

I'm surprised I didn't see more wind/kite surfers out today. I was racing on a Sydney 38 and thought to myself, 'Why aren't I on a windsurfer?' (apart from the fact I can't windsurf... yet :P)
