Drag Race.
If you are a betting person, which would you put your money on as the fastest? An open 60 Ocean Racer, a hydrofoiling Moth, a windsurfer or a kite boarder? Place your mental bet and then watch this video.
Yep, I was surprised as well. I think if the windsurfer hadn't gotten trapped in the big boat's wind shadow it would have been different, but that's drag racing.
Thanks for that - and a surprising result. I totally missed it.

ReplyDeleteI seriously expected the kiteboard or the windsurfer to win.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for a rematch. Best out of three. Next time the venue is in swallow water...
ReplyDeleteNot so surprising considering the ratios. Check out gosail.com for some interesting calculations.
