Better to put up a youtube video of a trial run over some southern ocean swell and get a million views of her classy act.

YEAH!! All RIIITE!

Oh, u said classy ACT...

There was a bloke called Nick Moloney who did the same trip in the late 90's. Nick http://www.ocftp2.com/nick/general/NickMoloneyCV.pdf. He was a Whitbread Round the World Aussie sailor. He gave a talk at an SHQ swap meet If I remember correctly.

Couple of things I remember about the talk:

He said he hadn't done much windsurfing so to prepare for the crossing he hired some gear from SHQ and sailed to Queenscliff!!

He also said at the end he had a ulcer covering the entire roof of his mouth!! ouch!!

Best of luck to Allison. Bass Strait is a very nasty piece of water.

Does anyone know who did the first crossing on a windsurfer - was it the real KA 1 ?

Two guys in the late '70's or very early '80's. One was Les Tokoli (Spelling?). Can't remember the other name. They sailed windsurfer one designs I think and had a large yacht as support if the stories I heard are correct.
