Drew Langdon and Miles Jennings averaged 108.54 mph in Silverline Bullet over ‘The Orestone Challenge’, an 18 nautical mile course set off England’s West Country.
The speed run was sanctioned by the Exmouth Powerboat and Ski Club (EPBSC) and their timekeepers were present at the Fairway Buoy and The Orestone to record the Mercury powered Outerlimits’ record. After Langdon and Jennings’ record Class 1 time, sea conditions worsened when David Foa and Charles Swales made their run. The pairing recorded an average speed of 56.15 mph in their 27’ twin Mercury outboard powered Revenger RIB in Class 2. |
