Mod70 / "Around Antigua Island" Record for Michel Desjoyeaux and Phaedo 3 !

Today Phaedo3 went out for a practice with its crew, knowing that, the Farr-designed 115-foot, Sojana, completed the “Around Antigua Island” race in 4 hours, 37 minutes and 43 seconds in 2009, a record which is still to be broken.

Team Phaedo decided to see if they could improve on this time unofficially. Lloyd Thornburg and his crew, hammered around the island in 2 hours, 44 Minutes and 15 seconds. 35 knots is the highest speed anyone can remember seeing…unofficially!
