  • Emirates Team New Zealand and Glenn Ashby’s World Record Run of 222.43km/h in Horonuku was widely celebrated when achieved on December the 11th 2022, breaking the previous record of 202.9km/h by Richard Jenkins which had been unbroken for over 13 years. But, as revealed in ‘Land of Speed’ the documentary covering the Emirates Team New Zealand land speed campaign, the new world record was relatively short lived as Pilot Glenn Ashby explains of the opportunistic window presented to the team. “In February we were really coming back to the lake pack up the craft. We had to get Horonuku and the containers back to New Zealand. But a few days out, Clouds our Meteorologist indicated there was a possible weather opportunity, so we rattled our daggs and got to the lake.”

    • @DemPilafian
      @DemPilafian Год назад +2

      The video had a confusing mix of units for speed. The wind speed was *43 km/h* and the vehicle speed was *226 km/h,* so the vehicle was actually traveling a little over *5 times faster* than the wind. I wish content creators were more consistent with their units (after all, they are professional communicators).

    Back in 1984 I was working on the Marsden Point maintenance shut down. An older guy on our crew was a Whangerei local who was working on a sail 'wing'. During smoko breaks we spoke of its potential and design although he did keep a bit under his hat.
    He was the subject of some ridicule by his maritime fraternity and others. Still he persevered.
    And here we are now, sailing on a wing that is faaast and seemingly unsurpassed at this time.
    I have wondered if his foresight was the seed for what we see here and on the water?

    I'm a bit surprised to see only one outrigger though! Two would be more stable (although there'd be a bit more drag) so you could *really* "put the hammer down" without fear of tipping over.
    Anyway, they must have crunched the numbers so they'd have it all worked out.

  • @fixento
    @fixento Год назад +1

    Great job of technology. I assume that is top GPS speed and not speed over a measured mile. I've sailed an ice boat and know how quickly the apparent wind will move forward. In your case keeping the wing from stalling. An iceboat in 1938 holds the speed record of 230.136 kpm. Obviously the friction of the land vehicle's three wheels on the ground is much greater than an iceboat. Y'all are dragging three wheels, with one on the outrigger being pressed into the ground to counter balance the heel. Is it possible to design a counter weight system on an upwind outrigger [with a wheel until the boat heels up] that moves outward to counter balance the heel, thus eliminating the outriggers wheels friction.
