This boat, so peaceful on the face of it, beat out many in one of the biggest races in terms of numbers - Round the Island. ICAP Leopard's skipper, Mike Slade, set the third best record on this course.

The 2013 J.P.MORGANBAR AC45 (skipper Ben Ainslie) crossed the Isle of Wight in 2 hours 52 minutes and 15 seconds. The previous record lasted 12 years!
