Have read old 79mph claim, across Sarasota Bay could be possible due to 8knot current, would be alot slower on GPS going other way!!

I saw 72 m.p.h. going past Lancaster services on the M6 .... however this was not independently recorded by the RYA, nor was it substantiated by a g.p.s. reading and guinness didn't want to know because it wasn't a two way average.

I was at littlehampton, saw the Blue and white Chaudron, Jan Falkowski was driving it, with a good looking blond girl and 2 other guys, one with a shaved head & the other tall, balding & over weight. Jan was definitely doing 50+mph a couple of times.
Definetely over 30mph, on a couple of occasions he was going faster than the race boats.

Cauldron?? Working in a supermarket in the holidays I know that they make organic foods like tofu. I haven't got anything against tofu but it just isn't the real thing! Bit like the Chaudrons really, not the real thing, its on a similar line to buying a fake tag heur and saying its better than the genuine article!

Wavejumper ... fake tags have ' TAG ' written on them because they are supposed to be confused with, you know, the real thing. Try as I might I can not find the word ' Phantom ' written on my boat.
Also, if your fake Tag has 'heur' written on it, I suggest you take it back to the market you bought it from and ask them to sell you another ' e '

It wasn't always the case the previous web site it WAS called a Phantom. That site has now gone and been replaced by the current one which claims it's a home grown Malta Boat
about the only surving link of the Chaudron claim is here

Ignore the Manos bit..............................
But the question was valid
