Summit fever... the final push...
Wed, 28 Oct 09 11:39
We're off. The teams fired up and the wind is building.
The guys at OPTRON GEOMATICS have manged to salvage yesterdays data... but we have the TRIMBLES padded up like newborns to make their ride down the course as soft as possible.
The only thing I am nervous about today is that the wind will not build enough to let us shine.
We ahve been struggling with the live feed over the past few days so might have to communicate through these blogs.
If the wind comes I reckon we will have a good shot at this title. Thanks to The boys from Hydroptere for giving us some TRIMBLE tips... good sports those guys. Hopefully we will soon see you guys up on the roof of the speed sailing world.
Cheers, Paul.
