GPS downwind test run


Here is a snapshot of my starting point (our home is marked) and how far I drifted downwind paddling straight out to reach my starting point for the run, where I turned the GPS on. The wind died on me quick tonight. It had been super windy, but shut down fast and created a wobbly run. My glides were not fast, just average. My speed averaged 7-8 mph on each glide. I've glided a lot faster on days with smaller waves and stronger wind, so I think 10 mph or better should show up on GPS on a good day.
