Background -
I have been windsurfing since I was 12 and my favourite disciplines are Raceboard and Speed and I still love the sport as much as I did when I first discovered it. I have been participating in GPS Speed sailing scene since invested in my first GPS unit. Now i have broken the 40 knot barrier with a peak speed of 41.22 knots, in the coming future I have set myself the goal of achieving 40 plus 500m and 5x10 second average speed and pushing my top speed over 43.5 knots (50mph). Now being involved with KA Sails, Mistral, Chinook and Vector Maui Fins I am sure I will achieve this goal.

ReplyDeleteHi Alistair,
ReplyDeleteRead on the UK Windsurfing forum that you'd had some gear stolen, but can't register as the link is down. So I came here to say that a Falcon 79 has just come up for sale in Ireland!

Hope this helps

Hi Pete,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info. It was not my gear that was stolen, i posted it for a friend and have passed on the information and he is now looking into it. Thanks again for your help.
Cheers
