How fast could you make a kayak go

How fast would a kayak go if you had one of those backpack leaf blowers down in the water? I don’t have one of those leaf blowers or else I could answer that. I’m hoping one of you do have a leaf blower and could do some research for me.

video please

I don’t have a kayak. But, I’m guessing somewhere around 50-55.

Would this be your first Kayak post? If so, great ?

I don't need the leaf blower; that's just noisy. I can strap it to the roof of my Yukon and probably get up to 100 mph or so. Sticking a leafblower in the water is just going to bog it down. That air "compressor" isn't designed to work with any backpressure; it will just bog down. Get yourself a high performance water pump!

What’s terminal velocity with a kayak?
120mph?

Depends on what's chasing me

Going to go check the lake in a bit. I’m not trying this if there is to much chop on the water

Is it on a treadmill?

....don't think the thought hasn't crossed my mind....but i'm a little old for "hey y'all watch this" moments...

Dunno but i think iconn needs to see me at the lake with his kazooki kayak.

How did the speed trials go?

Dang Christian, I'll be 65 in a few months... is that what you want to be known for? He beat a two pack a day, 65 year old smoker, who uses a spoon for a paddle. I've already told you my best speed.. 6.5 mph. Tell me your top end speed and I guarantee I can improve mine. I'm like the little kid in the long D contest.. I'm not going to show you everything I've got... just enough to win.

Well im also a 2 pack a day smoker. I will have to see what i can do about checking my speed. I did get bill bragmans reload to 7.3 for just a second. The fisha is waaaaay faster than the reload. I dont have fish finder or gps...kinda low tech guy. Last week i chased a mamoth off a cliff with a spear and torch. Hahaha

The past is the past... what can you do now? Not in someone else's kayak, in your own. I'm sure I was faster at 45 than 65, and I know plenty of kayaks that I could go faster in than my own, not to mention by getting a bigger bladed paddle. How old are you anyway? Last time I saw you, you looked like a kid. Do you like picking on old folks?

PS... what is " way faster" ?.. since you didn't have a gps, how can you tell? By the wind blowing through your hair?

Yes. Exactlly! My beard measures the velocity calculayes in the coreolis effect. Hahahaha. Aaaaand, my own are viking 440 and stealth fisha 500. Yes i do swing a shovel but as my elbows and shoulders age im probably going to do some experimenting.

Having a few technical difficulties. Hope to get them worked out by the weekend.
