New World SAW Record 148mph

RaceMechaniX · Sep 25, 2015

I just heard form Joerg that Arne Hold broke the Q and overall world record with his 6 cell rigger running 238 and 239kmh which equates to 148mph and change. A big congrats to Arne and his team for smashing the record. This is from the first day at a SAW event in Munich. I expect even higher speeds to come over the weekend.

Congrats Arne!

Nice shake down run. The rest of the weekend should be interesting. Can't wait to hear what they do with the 1,2,4 cell boats.

I guess we have our work cut out for us in Nov.

I heard the wind blew and was pretty rough on Saturday and Sunday. Some of the big cats made 140+ mph passes.

Here are the last set of records that were established. Tyler has been keeping some of us in the loop.

Impressive, you knew Jorge was quiet for too long

That raises the bar pretty high for the stateside SAW guys , November ought to be interesting.

Congrats Jorge and Arnie .

Steve,

They are running at an Olympic rowing facility in Munich. They only rented one end of the course, but the remaining 1500m were open for practice on the other side.

A whole bunch fewer lawyers in Germany?

raptor347 · Sep 30, 2015

On a side note. Is that the facility where they held the 1936 Olympic rowing events?

Darin Jordan · Sep 30, 2015

Check out this footage. Very cool:

Hi Stan..

Good to hear from you!

My Son's very good with FE boats, and it amazes me how fast they are!

If the weather holds out, I'll see you in a week, and we can have a cold one, and BS. Is your dad coming?

Have a good one!

Steve

WOW...I would like to have THAT lake in my back yard!!!

That is the kind of lake that we need here, centrally located with a good stand of wind screen trees surrounding it. I would certainly make a donation toward building it.
