Argo demolishes Bermuda-Plymouth record
Argo demolishes Bermuda-Plymouth record © Team Argo In her first outing since the beginning of the pandemic, Jason Carroll s MOD70 trimaran Argo last week blew away the existing record for the passage between Bermuda and Plymouth, UK. The previous record for this 2870 mile course eastbound across the North Atlantic was set in May 2016 by American Lloyd Thornburg s sistership, Phaedo 3 with a time of 5 days 11 hours 57 mintes. Argo s 4 days 19 hours and 30 minutes (measured, but still subject to ratification by the World Sailing Speed Record Council) was 16 hours 37 minutes or 14.4% faster. Her average speed for the direct course was 24.85 knots. In fact including several gybes, Argo sailed 3,347 miles through the water at an average speed just under 29 knots, making it one of the highest speed passage records ever set by a MOD70.
