A nice sunday outing

We had a moth training day at St. George today, with 9 boats turning up for a sail including Rohan’s new Bladerider and Luka’s new prowler.

Off the bat I must say how impressed I was with the Bladerider, they guys at KA have though through every little detail and have come up with the neatest moth I have ever seen. Luka’s new Prowler, however is a gorgeous boat, and the clear carbon foils are a work of art.

Rohan also handed out some Velocitek GPS’s for people to use. The S10 is a great little unit, however the data in the one I borrowed had not been cleared and it did not record any track data.

It did however record my 10 second average at 13.7 knots, and my peak speed at 15 knots. Not bad considering my foil setup still has a long way to go, and I was only pottering around in a 13 knot breeze with the odd 17 knot gust. Thanks fo the loan Rohan, I think that you may have got youself another customer next year when I get the new boat.
