Wot Rocket on track for test tomorrow
Posted on 30/06/2008
Given this weekend’s light forecast and the fact the latest round of modifications to Wot Rocket are still in progress, the next planned test sail for Australia’s world speed sailing record attempt will be on Botany Bay tomorrow, Tuesday July 1.
The forecast for Tuesday is for westerly winds of 15-20 knots, the perfect wind range for Wot Rocket’s design space according to pilot Sean Langman who has now conducted sea trials in varying wind speeds and believes “everything is pushing us back to 15-20 knots.
