At last!
(previously published here)
Have found some one to help with GPS logging unit for my speed-sailing windsurfing pastime down at Sandy Point, South Gippsland, Victoria. Well worth the ninety minute trip down this time!
It has taken two years of procrastination, but finally used my GPS logger for sailing rather than just a now and again car or plane trip! Not a fad now fella!
Of course a little hiccup- the water proof pouch was not where I thought it was, but then a week later- it was in the sailing kit all along, bummer dude, but the plastic shopping bags used did a fine job, and with the unit stuck under my chin under the wetsuit, managed a fair velocity up to 27 knots in wind of 10 to 15 knots. Or up to 50 kmh! yay me, and that was with a 6.5m2 Severne sail, ah.
Yes, ahh, the new gear has been nice and forgiving and good too.
So I will have to get more time on the water, and maybe put myself on the GPS-Speedsailing board, all it takes is time and confidence.
The jibing seems to be coming together again now, so that is good! If you take a close look, some runs end really well, some NOT.
Location and tracking- 20 kms in 25 runs less than an hour I think, still have to fine tune the GPSResults tables! tracks- red hi velocity, blue, beach walking… scale at below tracks in knots
