Speed sailing on San Francisco Bay

The super fast French Tri L'Hydroptere set a speed record on the bay last week, 37 knots! I was surprised to hear as others that there was no official speed record on the bay, so the Tri easily set a bar for only a few to try to break. Of course with the AC coming next summer and the massive AC72 cats plying the waters, that record could be broken. Of course L'Hydroptere is still in the bay, waiting for the weather window to Hawaii, and she could still go out on a good air day and smash that 37 knot mark. She has already done 50 knots before, so lets just wait and see if L'Hydro will raise the bar before the AC72's can start to challenge it.
