VESTAS Sailrocket 2 Outright world speed sailing record holder. (subject to WSSRC ratification) SailRocket boat crash at record speed. Vestas Sailrocket. We just got back in from a great session and I’m happy to say that VESTAS Sailrocket 2 is now in the 50 knot club. We did three runs culminating a great final sprint where she just surged over the 50 knot mark recoding a peak of 50.53 knots. On the previous run she hit over 46 knots. Overall it has been a pretty stunning progression for the new ventilated foil. DAY 3: EXTREME! A major collision, 4 capsizes, 1 broken mast.
