Perfect conditions greeted the start of UK Coniston Powerboat Records Week 2008. Monday's conditions were ideal for records in excess of 100mph with bright sunshine and mirror flat water. Early Tuesday conditions were once again ideal for a few hours before runs in excess of 110 mph were curtailed and the offshore and sub 90mph drivers got there chance to shine.

Current World Record Improvements (Subject to Ratification)

Chris Loney F3000 123.01mph
Keith Whittle SL250 114.83mph (New Evinrude 250 E-TEC)
Helen Loney 48v Electric 13.80mph

In addition the UK Ladies outright record was raised to 125.00mph dead by Helen Loney driving an F1 DAC.
