Chuck E Three Time Spawner Registered: 09/07/05 Posts: 1832 Loc: Kitsap Peninsula	Over 65 knots on the water with just wind power is really unbelieveable. I've done quite a bit of sailing but never much above 12 knots. An engineering marvel. Here's a link to the website is anyone is iterested in more information: http://www.sailrocket.com/ _________________________ "I didn't care what she didn't 'low--I would boogie-woogie anyhow" John Lee Hooker

Piper Unregistered	damn that is fast... I'd like to see him ditch the cockpit and hang off a trapeze wire... There is not a much more awesome feeling than the power of the wind in the sail, and the only thing keeping the boat upright is your body hanging on a wire as far out as you can get it...
