Despite these difficulties, the team was able to break the previous record for the crossing, completing the journey in just 10:00:39 with a cruising speed of 30 knots.
The reported consumption of 940 litres to cover the nearly 300 miles in 10 hours demonstrates the economy of these modern engines (twin Evinrude-Bombardier 250 hp) and the performance of the development engineers in saving energy.
