Record breaker
MARI-CHA III is a Super Maxi whose hydraulic sailing systems may be converted to manual operation to comply with the rules stipulated by the World Speed Sailing Record Council.
The interior can be dismantled to reduce weight for racing programs and give room to the racing crew of 25. However, the full width owner's suite with its adjoining study and large shower room remains largely intact, as do the crew quarters.
MARI-CHA III, in racing mode, became the new Atlantic record breaker on October 24, 1998, when she crossed the finish line

at Lizard Point in southern England at 12:08:17.
MARI-CHA III sailed from New York to Lizard in 8 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes and 41 seconds. She averaged 14 knots.

New-York... Lizard Point, Record broken!
