BJORN DUNKERBECK & ROBBY NAISH’S
SPEED SAILING RECORD ATTEMPT

On July 4th the undisputed icons and world champions of windsurfing
Björn Dunkerbeck & Robby Naish are about to embark on breaking a new
frontier
in sailing when they set out to become the fastest men on water.

As long as the sailing sport has been in existence, the quest to break the
wind speed barriers remained an elusive dream for many. Both Dunkerbeck &
Naish together with a selected group of the sailing worlds finest will gather
at three locations around the globe, waiting for just the right conditions,
to not only challenge the world record of 46.52knots but to break the 50 knots
barrier.

The Challengers will embark on their quest for 28 days in the Canary Islands
and eventually travel to Southern France’s Mediterranean Sea before catching
the winds of spring on the shores of New Zealand’s Pacific coastline. They
will leave nothing to chance, in their search for just the right wind and favorable
water conditions.
