Unreal how fast this canal is! My last world record was 41.25 in St. Maries now almost 10 years later I could improve by 5 kts. Already the trip from Cape Town to Luderitz was very nice and the Luderitz town itself has a interesting history which you can still follow and feel today. Before I came here I had respect to sail in this canal but with Patrik's help & tipps it was an easy approach and I felt confident straight away. The first days were lighter and perfect to get a feeling for the canal and get ready for the windy day. Last Monday all happened so fast and after my two warm up runs already the 3 run was my record. The wind kept picking up and when the sand started flying over mast high I borrowed to Patrik my 5.0 and I helped him to chase Antoine. With more runs and waiting for the lucky one I am sure I can go quite a bit faster and watching the guys chasing the 100km/h I believe for us women it is possible to reach the 50 kts very soon.
