It doesn't look so menacing without the black tubes, obviously one to watch if they can dial her in quickly enough.
Anyone remember her average speed on the Poole to Cherbourg record run a few years ago - which she still holds? Was it around 85mph?

Cowes Friday
After a morning of rain the sun came out to shine on a few more in the Marina.
I would think that the rest would be there sat.
