Looking for Lord Lucan - #2: In a speedboat, with a large sack, in the English Channel

Taki Theodoracopoulos, who writes for The Spectator and the London Times, believes Lucan bought a 20-foot speedboat in the year before he disappeared.

In 1974, he says, Lucan made two dummy runs from Belgravia to the South Coast with a mysterious sack weighing eight stone.

Lucan certainly knew about powerboats, having competed in the 1964 Cowes-Torquay race. Theodoracopoulos says Lucan borrowed £5,000 from him shortly before the murder.

Patrick Marnham, in his book “Trail of Havoc”, suggests that the money was to pay a hitman.
