Hi Randy Our previous boat (J27) hit record speed (for us) of 130 km/h. Of course that was behind a Chevy Silverado 2500HD with Duramax engine .....

Yesterday I hit 7.8 knots per GPS on my 30 MK I, S/V Grenadine (hull #79). It happened on port tack beam reach in 45 knots true wind, under single-reefed main and working jib, with bright blue skies and 85-degree temps. My previous record was 7.6 knots, five years ago, on starboard tack close reach in a 27mph gust under full main and #2 genoa. That’s over a knot faster than her theoretical hull speed of 6.67 knots. Has anyone broken 8 knots on a 30 MK I?
