Hi guys,

Believe it or not Sam is heading out tomorrow night and tuesday night.  He is crazy

Sam gave me the four tracks for the day to stitch up and here is some data on his hours.

5 best 3600 second (at least) average = 46.48km/h [25.10Knots]

3600 second run n°1 = 48.36km/h [26.11Knots] (48,358.2 m. in 3,600.000 s.)
3600 second run n°2 = 47.27km/h [25.52Knots] (47,265.8 m. in 3,600.000 s.)
3600 second run n°3 = 46.77km/h [25.26Knots] (46,774.5 m. in 3,600.000 s.)
3600 second run n°4 = 45.08km/h [24.34Knots] (45,082.5 m. in 3,600.000 s.)
3600 second run n°5 = 44.90km/h [24.24Knots] (44,901.1 m. in 3,600.000 s.)
3600 second run n°6 = 43.24km/h [23.35Knots] (43,242.3 m. in 3,600.000 s.)
3600 second run n°7 = 39.28km/h [21.21Knots] (39,284.4 m. in 3,600.000 s.)

The total distance is 404.647 Km.

Huge effort Sammy, well done mate! Well done also to Carl!

Wow! That is an amazing effort and an incredibly consistent track! Congrats and respect due!

Sensational effort!!!!! Great respect!!!!!

Anyone who has had a good go at a one hour time will certainly appreciate the mind and body numbing prospect of doing 9 of them back to back with hardly a stop in between. I simply cannot imagine myself doing that. The last 10 minutes of my best 1 hour was already playing tricks with my mind, the gybes were getting shakier and shakier and the speed form was already deteriorating markedly!

I was just trying to psyche myself up for a 300km attempt over the summer. 400? forget it! .

I will be there for you Kato when you go for your attempt though!!!

From the look of the tracks and the terrain, Boggy Lake looks like an ideal location for big distance attempts. Hang on a sec.... was that an ONSHORE wind? With chop? Bloody'ell!

You get big chop but if it has been blowing a while you can pick the troughs.  Don't forget the carp and fence posts.  Sam said he did not know if he was going to be able to do the 400 at the end as the wind was dying so he did the longer run to the right, he said the last half hour was the killer.

Sam definately has amazing focus and concentration and believe it on not has only been sailing since about late 2005 or so(I think.)

WOW!

The bar is high!!!!

WOW that distance is simply sensational

Not only that, there is so many other aspects that are awesome also

I think this will be very hard to beat, if you think about the average speeds Sam was doing and time on water

Absolutely agree, the prospect of trying to better Sam's effort is daunting.  Consistancy at that high level for that long is remarkable.  Well done.
