WARNING!
No PB is worth a life as a quadraplegic or no life at all.
In WA in search of flat water and new PBs, sailors are now sailing in very shallow water which has recently been exacerbated by extreme low tides.
Do not sail at speed in water if you are not certain there is sufficiant clearance for your fin or if there is a possibility of hitting projections (rocks etc).
Firiebob trades Coral Sea chop for Point Walter ripples and gets a new PB and Troppo now joins the WA table. Congrats also to the Man of Steel who also got a new PB after a long dry spell.
(edit 21/01/2009) Annika and Pugwash (JamesF) gain new PBs at Pt Walter.
(edit 22.01.2009) While JamesD discovers flatwater (and skill) can overcome a 40cm fin at Melville. Well done

Yoyo,
Should have mentioned this before - I appear twice in the list, so please delete the slower speed (31.1).
Thanks,
Windrider (aka Rindwider)
I did a PB of 28knots (Foretrex101 Max speed) on Christmas day at Melville. I was still 12 years old then! Have a way to go to catch up with Jet now that I am 13.
Cheers
David
