2006 World Record Attempt by UK RV6

'A fact that has been obscured by the delays with bad weather, is that I did get quite a few records!  I  established the British record for the circumnavigation in the class, established 9 intermediate distance world records, was the only British registered homebuilt to go around the world ( and by far the furthest a Brit homebuilt has gone) and the fastest circumnavigation by any type of RV.  The weather and the AI made sure I am the class second fastest in the world- but I'm happy at that!'
