McArthur in another record-breaking attempt
03/06/2005 - 15:03:11The woman who is the fastest person ever to sail solo around the world is back on the water again.
Ellen McArthur is attempting to break another world record in a 100-mile sprint across the British Channel from Plymouth to Roscoff in France. It is hoped the 28-year-old will set a time others can challenge - the fastest in the next year will win the new Brittany Ferries 100-mile trophy.
It is estimated the sail will take between five and seven hours.
