I think we had a post on this a while back, but it included spot records for different types of gear, etc. How about we do an outright 2-sec max spot record listing at the main speeds sailing spots (and maybe other spots where people often sail)?

Spots:

Any other spots?

Post your best 2-sec max speed and I'll update the list above!!

Looks like it's about to get windy again, so a good time to break some spot records!!

(this was the same day Kaleb cracked 30 kts at Sth Arm)

I've filled in a lot of my PB's from down south, so just waiting now for Kaleb to see this post !! [}:)]

Wow, that didn't take too long to complete!! We can now try to beat those spot records and include any new spots. I've ranked the spots in order of top 2-sec speed, so we can see where are best speed sailing spots are (so far)!!

I reckon Daves 40 at Dorans is like 47 at the PIT

But I never sailed the pit

Cheers Russ

Arrggghhhh, that hurts!! Well done Perks. I held it for day!!

I thought that might put the challenge out - and it did!!

Izaak, now I know why your posted results have suddenly changed in the past. Dave, might as well hold off updating results until everyones gone back through their history and recaculated their results using GPSresults.
Geez the speed knockers are going to have fun with this. Just shows how much crap it is when we go on about someone beeting someone else by point whatever of a knot. Especially when someones using software that gives them nearly half a knot more than the others software gives them.
Negative Nancy signing off

Jez, how do you upload to the GPSSS site, I tried to but it would do it. I've been manually loading to that site. I know us old coots are a bit slow at technical computer stuff, remember we were bought up with typewriters[}:)]

A large percentage of the world download through GPSResults, why disadvantage yourself.

I uploaded to gps speedsurfing website using gps results and my 40.12 become a 40.5!

izaak said...

Kaleb, your comments have been quite negative of late.

Thats a green thumb from me

I just bought the software and compared my run at Hawley.

It was 41.860 knots using KA72 and RealSpeed and 41.890 using GPSResults, so only 0.03knot different.

I usually check my results using Realspeed and then post via KA72. I can't recall ever seeing a discrepancy between Realspeed and KA72 (they are always the same).

Just checked my best two second:
Realspeed - 45.750
GPSResults - 45.846
A 0.096 difference (less than 0.1 of a knot).

I reckon I'll just continue to post using KA72. It automatically posts where you sailed and that's good for doing searches within MyData!

I think it's fine to use any of the recognised software programs (Realspeed, GPSResults, etc).

Good work putting that together Dave, interesting comparing spots and how close similar places are at opposite ends of the state.
Im going looking for an un sailed speed run... will let you know what the top speed is when I get back

Only got a .02 increase on the 44.11. When using GPSResults
Sorry if I was sounding negative. I've been a bit too much like that lately. Well done to everyone for constantly raising the bar. With all my delemas at Stanley I dont think I properly congratulated Perks on his awesome 5x10 and new Tassie record, nice work in tough conditions ya fast bugga
The 5x10 shows who is consistently the fatsest sailor on the water and is the one to claim all bragging rights.

OK, Kaleb has just laid the challenge down for us to include 5x10 in this list.

Perhaps we do another list below the current one for 5x10, top three, same as before!!

Ben, I like you enthusiasm!! Perhaps we make it that a spot needs to have an over 30 knots 2-second session before it can be added to the list? There's a double challenge for you (I mean that by way of encouragement)!!!

2-second
