Excellent article by Adam Fisher, who got the first ''ride'' in it and describes it well.

''Speed ALLEY'' the course..
''There is a shipping port on the far side of the bay, but over here the landscape is so desolate, so extreme, that we could be on an alien planet—Frank Herbert’s Arrakis, George Lucas’ Tatooine. In fact, we are in Namibia, a roughly Texas-sized country at the southwest corner of the African continent.

Some technical talk about the 50 knot hydrodynamic barrier that RichH and others would find interest in.
