I've only just starting to get interested in speed sailing again, but I only want to do this during winter months. Is anyone keen ?. If you're interested, post here, or PM.
sputnik said.. I don't think you have reached a speed above 25 knots yet J, so maybe create a " gentle cruise team".
We'll see . I was almost keeping up with Carl last year at Stansbury, so I have definitely cracked over 30 knots, just not logged. I've had a hiatus from GPS loggers for about four years and winter kicking in, I'm now keen to see what I can do.
Just join up to either team on GPSTeamChallenge.com.au (does not matter what speed you do either, what does matter is using a legit GPS device and highly recommend a GW-60 made by Locosys (downside costs a bit)) -Bogan Speed Team (Carl, Sam, Shane, etc) -SA Speed Demons (not many posting much these days, PK seems most active) I joined up with Mandura Mob as these guys are pretty easy going, but are WA based mostly. I'm one of the slowest on the team but I like doing distance!
The Bogans is a very serious team. They only accept members who post every time they sail. I thought that was the case with the Speed Demons as well. I had a chat to Tim, and he said he would accept me and happy for me only to post in winter time. So just waiting to be put on the list. Yep, I own a GW-60.
