  • give us a GPS picture with 25-30 knots ,to me it looks like max12

  • @soilisg Yeah, that weather never really shows on the video. It's deceiving, because the wave trains are moving so fast in that weather. The swell was so long that we weren't blasting through it the way you do when going fast in shorter chop. I don't have the logged data from that race, but I can assure you that we spent two days averaging well over 20, and were into the 30s quite a bit.

  • @soilisg just posted more footage from the same 48hr period. Shows the speed a little better...
