The 2008 Ivanpah blokart
Open and Rally

In this vid I am the green sail playing tag with Jason who is filming.  

A few days before our event saw the big landsailors ripping around the California desert at the Ivanp[ah dry lake bed. Our regatta took place in what some would call sailing's “go-karts.” Everyone knows how fun driving a go-cart is – now imagine a quiet one, powered by wind, that goes 40 mph. Then imagine starting with 40 of them. Dave Trude put this report together for us. Enjoy.

The bloKart is small, fun, cheap, and easily transported. It's supported by a great group of Kiwis and is a must for every sailor to try. Races start like any regular sailboat race - The mark is set upwind and after a 3-minute countdown – WHOOSH – you're off. Races are timed for 15 minutes, and the object is to get more laps done than anyone else. Your finish place counts if there are several on the same lap, and laps and position are tracked with radio transponders. Read On
