Sounds like an odd topic, but it would be interesting to see just how fast an 8.5 sail can go!

Heres Mine:

80 kg / Hyper 111 / 8.4 RS6 / 41cm RS Viper
Wind 12 - 16-18 / 30 cm chop
Fotrex 101
2 Sec / 28.44 knots

I am picking with nice flat water and consistant wind, perhaps 30 knots would be about it.
