New record for round Britain and Ireland

An all-female crew has become the fastest in the world to sail around Britain and Ireland.

It took them less than six and a half days to complete 2,500 nautical miles, beating the previous record of seven days and four hours set in May 2004.

Yachtswoman Dee Caffari teamed up with Vendee Globe rival Sam Davies to win the accolade, sailing her Open 60 Aviva.
