RORC skipper Ross Hobson, aiming to beat the doublehanded Round Ireland Speed Sailing Record, has postponed his record bid.
The Open 50 'Pegasus of Northumberland' remains in Dun Laoghaire Harbour, and Hobson and Adrian Banks are 'awaiting direction from weather routers' on the next available weather opportunity.
As Afloat reported previously, the time to beat is three days, 19 hours, 41 minutes and 39 seconds, established by the foiling Figaro 3 Magenta Project - double-handed by Greystones's Pamela Lee and Cat Hunt - in October 2020.
The record attempt must be made from Kish to Kish on Dublin Bay in either direction around Ireland, a distance of some 700 miles.
