Do you have a way of calculating how fast Playstation 2 would go if they
could fit it into the French Trench?


... For land speed it's the average through a
measured mile.

Actually it has to be an average speed in both directions. For the
windsurfer records I believe it is over a 100 meter measured run.


correct.... as in most speed records. Not sure of distances.




... But wind surfing is in fact sailing so even it was speed
attained I'd have to think yes.

Have you seen Yellow Pages Endeavor? If you call *that* a sailboat, then
a windsurfer definitely is one.


Yes I would call it a sailboat. Would love to sail it here on
Clearlake on a 75 knot day. I hear it did 46.5 one way.



... Now was that in relation to the water or
over the ground speed?

I don't think there's any current in the trench.

Guess you have never seen the sewers trenches in France.
