have you seen it ?

has the man gone mad ?

Look at that wash - is it speed record week on the lakes /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Neddie_Seagoon]

gone ????????????????

 

[Coupe]

Nope.

Do a search, you might just catch him. Bloody speedsters /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Lakesailor]

Ah. Thought that would fool you. According to my etrex gps that was taken at 9.8 mph (that is less than the limit which is 10 knots - 11.4 mph)

So whilst it's perfectly legal it is quite anti-social.

Rhubarb Rhubarb You liccle liar!
9+8 mph more like /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Since mathematicians like to replace 'x' with '.', then this is clearly 9 x 8 mph =

72mph...............

Mathematically You have totally lost Me!
Look, round ere Mate I work out Finance Payements for peeps with an Abacus.
My Abacus still tells Me Lakey is a Fibber.

[Lakesailor]

Absolutely honest. That was below 10 mph.

If I had been planing it would have looked much flatter and smoother.
More like this, probably

 

[Sixpence]

So there's a good argument for lifting the speed limit , much smoother

 

[Lakesailor]

Unfortunately at the moment I have to take her down to Barrow to do 35 mph, so the lake has to put up with all that wash that sub-planing speeds produce. (OK it will plane at 15 mph)

 

[Sixpence]

Eventually I'll find out what speed I need to get to before I lift , and if herself has her way with the refit I'll need to change the engine to get moving at all
