sorry andy but that was not the case at draycote! they were slower down wind than the 18s prob a little faster than the 49ers (so still very good for a boat that is 12ft) but slow upwind more like a 29er.... |

Ok Ian ( I was miss informed), I wasnt out there as kept on filling with water and falling over backwards by the time the wind came in, we were onshore!! But we did notice the 3man bear away of a certain Base 1 nearly mashing a 29er! Not as good as one of the other 18's, cant rem which, but bore away in the path of a 9er, noticed then flutered up - nearly wiping out another one!! HAHAHA! |

Wow! One of the most amazing shots I've seen in a while. How did they do it? It does not look like a particularly fresh breeze or large swells to launch off from exist. Also kudos to the photographer for being at the right place at the right time with the right reflexes! |
