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.

Sorry Tillerman, no foiling Lasers in this match up.

  2. 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.

  3. I seriously expected the kiteboard or the windsurfer to win.
