Love to tell all about our day out sailing, but knackered. To Donny, Tony, Duncan, Ben & Paul; well played.

Craig Spottiswood has really given speed sailing a shake- he’s always been fast; now we have the numbers 43 knots + (81 km/h)
See him smoking at Sandy:

Why?Oh man that was great. Perfect wind- steady and strong. Perfect direction. I went a little upwind from Elwood Sailing Club and got some huge 4-6m jumps. 12-15 huge forwards- no bail outs all good stuff. I give this five out of five despite the fact that I crashed at high speed while gybing and I’d say I’m 70% certain I’ve cracked a rib. Never mind, worth it.

Donny… WTF were you?
