Carl Macdonald (18593km):
5867 days ago Had to work again so missed the morning session again. Arrived at 13.30 to hear Sam had already done 200 k's - he is a machine!!! Managed to work up to where Sam was doing his reaches - approx 2.5 - 3km long and cruised with him for a while. He was cranking on the fanatic 91 as usual and we had some great drag racing again. Sailed with him till 7pm and found out he had done 400 k's - well done mate Used Fanatic 89, 5.8m koncept and 31cm sl7. Also great to see my dad back on the water
Sam - On the water at 9am after 2 powerades. Used the loft blade 6.2 - sail smooth and rock solid as usual. Fanatic 91 ate up the chop as usual. Sailed 200 k's by 13.30 - had a 24.7 knot moving avg - (WOW - SHOCKED) and went in for another couple of powerades. Carl turned up and joined me after working in the morning for the next session. He gave me a boost - couldn't have done it without you mate - thanks. Sailed until 7pm and did 404 k's - overall sail moving average was 23 knots for whole day and took 9.5 hours - 9 - 7 with 1/2 hour break. Wouldn't hurry to do it again. People came sailed and went - it was lonely and didn't get to catch up with the usual crew. Thanks again Carl for the support and sailing till the end with me. Now i am having drinks with friends and are cramping up just picking up my drink. 15 - 20 knot southerly - boggy lake - fanatic 91, 6.2m loft blade and 31cm sl7.
