Mari Cha IV, Robert Miller’s carbon fibre 140ft super-maxi, is on her final approach to Lizard Point and should cross the finish line within the next hour, breaking the world speed transatlantic record.

News from the boat shows that the crew is pushing hard in the 32kt breeze and following sea and the boat is surfing at 30 kts. At 0730 this morning she had less than 40nm to go.

More news when we have it.
