Both the above are subject to ratification by the RYA and UIM, as both attempts warrant national and world records. Setting out from Lymington at 3:00am on Thursday 11 August, Mike Deacon, a local businessman, together with his son David, blasted his boat across the start line. The slight seas endured through to the first re-fuelling point at 12:25 in Bangor, Northern Ireland, and beyond. Keen to round the North of Scotland in daylight, Hot Lemon V drew into Peterhead for the second refuelling stop at 20:30. The voyage then proved even more challenging with unpredictable winds and on his return Mike said, “The North Sea was rough but, knowing the boat could handle it, we just kept the throttle on at 50 knots”. Mike is a seasoned Round Britain World record breaker. In 2001 in Hot Lemon III, he established new Round Britain World record times for all powerboats. In 2002, in Hot Lemon IV, Mike improved the 30ft to 50ft record, and now in 2005, Mike has set a new under 30 foot World record in Hot Lemon V. details by Royal Yachting Association FOUNTAIN OFFSHORE GRAN PRIX AUG. 5TH., 6TH. , & 7TH. , 2005 The T-3X Comps are now in stock in 24, 26, 28, 30, and 32" pitches.
