Rod Douglas set a new unofficial speed record in the Namibia trench. Charlotte Consorti of France set the women’s speed record at 50.43 knots. Also the first woman over 50 knots. I am talking about kite boards of course. The argument will rage on I am certain over whether or not they should qualify as a boat and therefore be included in the WSSC records.
Whatever the outcome of this discussion. They are pushing the envelope.
