Around Jamestown Record

“It was fun, pretty perfect conditions other than 7-8 foot waves at Beavertail, but flat the rest of the way. Nice easterly, high teens with a couple of puffs up to 30. There were a lot of fish, I hit about five and crashed, along with three other crashes, but all in all pretty quick. I’ve been thinking about this record for a long time, so I'm just stoked, it’s pretty cool to break it." -Casey Brown

We have a new outright record holder! Coming it at 50 minutes 48 seconds Rob Spets has set the Around Jamestown Record. Congratulations!

Rob Spets is off! He’s attempting the record on his foiling kiteboard Skellinger. He’s headed north first in a solid 18kt westerly in an outgoing tide. The outright record is 52 minutes 02 seconds. And the foiling kiteboard record is 53 minutes 37 seconds.

It’s that time of year when the wind comes from the west and sets up perfect conditions for a run at the record.

There will be a foiling kiteboard attempt later today - stay tuned for more details!

The record breaking continues for Argo. Well done in the Vineyard Race!
