Second day at la palme. Sailing the event Prince off Speed (POS)
Yesterday we did not have very much wind, so i was sailing with 7,0 and the Fanatic Falcon 89 (old version) i was maneged to do the best Run of the 1 heat, i hade a 500 meter run of 39 knots. This morning we heard the results of the first day, and we heard that the video timing during my best run was out, for 6 minits, so no officiel timing for me on my best run. but GPS3 lett see it was in the 1,5 hour thuring the Race. Look at post Yesterday
So back to the second day, Today we saild heat 2 and 3 both 1,5 hour. in heat 2 i was really on fire. The board was flijing very fast did one 500 meter runs from 40.07 and one from 39,6 wich gave me an avg. from 39,83 thats 73.77 kmh. this was anough to beat!!!!!! Antoine Albeau!!!!! and Vincent Valkenaar. So pretty happy with it.
The 3 run i was thinking faster than 40 knots avg, on the same equipment is not easy for me, so i dicidid to change the board to the Fanatic Falcon 50 speed. the runs were fast but not fast anough this time, Albeau was flying in heat 3 and wonn the event. Also Vincent was pretty close to me, was a big battel between us, i was i littel bit faster at the end.
It was a nice to do!!!! POS!!! event, and i will do it over next year.
hopfully than a littel bit more wind so we cann do 43 knotts 500 meter Runs.
