Great soundtrack - especially the 1st choice.  Can you remind me of the artist - always on the lookout for good stuff to add to the collection??

C'mon guys... 50knots?
Thats a force 9-10... and I didnt spot many white caps, let alone buildings being damaged.
Even at a force 8 you start to have trouble walking.

Ive been out with gusts that big once... I got caught out when the wind increased beyond the forcast and the result was a phonecall to noble marine the next morning... not something id want to do in an 'RS Vision Skiff'

Ive windsurfed in 40-45 knots, and ran a tiny girly 3.6m sail! - foam and spray off the tops of waves on a "lake"(when i did my bak in), and ive sailed an omega 4 up in 35-40 and dropped the rig, THAT was windy!!! sorry bud-  that looks about 20 knots! still good pace from a vision though

I think he was joking - you were joking right???
Course that's not 50kts but it does look like about as much fun as you can have in an RS Vision.  Good bit of Beach Boys too

40-45 knots, that is dangerous Andy, buildings get damaged and trees up rooted in that wind!!  Please stop exaggerating! its getting boring now! Unless of course your not and just a super human
