. its a great place to stay
i think you will be termed "international competitor" icesurf. sounds so much bigger. 
i can't take all of the credit for the organizing, both Ray and Geoff on the ground have really provided a huge amount of support and organized this prize. also elders realty have expressed a lot of support for the event.
also more great news coming soon.
Excellent stuff Justin! and to Elders for their support!
Will need at least a good steady 20-30knts to get close to breaking the record,Anthony done it on a square course in about a 30-40knt squall,so if the angle is right you could do 38knts in 20-30
^ 38.04kn
you won't need a wetsuit this time so there may be a few knots with reduced weight.
