Thanks for the link. The "50 knot barrier" has proven to be quite a barrier
hasn't it? Thanks for posting this interesting link. It would be nice if
they had a plan of their vessel on the web site, they mention a paravane but
no clear pictures of how the whole system works. Also they did not mention
what speeds they were achieving in 5m/s winds.
