30 knots Ain't SQUAT, by today's standards ; i can
an Have done Close to that on less than $2,000 worth
of kite-boarding equipment and a home-made kite-board.
Until Sail-rocket came along, the speed record for kites
in water was 55.65 knots.
But Sail-rocket spent an excess of $300,000 to break a
record that a kite-Dude had done on less than $5K worth
of equipment!!

30knots on water ; yea --- that's a bit of a Joke to me (.)
sorry -----------------------------------------------NOT !!
I sail on a Hobie-21se, because i can't bring dates on
my kite-board with me ; and YES, i "Like" sailing Cats
