> The fastest title always goes to the last liar. Yes, paddlers estimates of wind strength and wave size vary according to the purpose of the storytelling. :-) However, I should say that Andrew McAuley is genuinely a very fast paddler, having won a Hawkesbury 100+ km race, and paddled solo across Bass Strait in 36 hours or so, 220 kms, a ground breaking (wave-making?) effort. I really meant that he is an exceptionally fast and competent sea kayaker.
