Torquay United were in seventh heaven as they ended their near seven-year wait for an FA Cup win by putting seven past Lymington Town - a result which breaks their own FA Cup record victory.
Skipper Asa Hall and striker Ruairi Keating both had chances to give the Gulls the lead - only to be denied by Lymington keeper Nic Jones - before they eventually made the breakthrough on 36 minutes when Lymington's Lewis Brailey deflected a Ben Wynter cross into the back of his own net.
Two minutes later, United doubled their lead when a long pass from Jake Andrews found Opi Edwards, who then produced a cross which found Jamie Reid who tapped home from close range.
In the second half, the Gulls made it 3-0 on 56 minutes as a move involving Keating, Reid and Andrews resulted in Keating scoring his third of the season with a side-footed volley.
In thre 59th minute, an uncharacteristic error from Jones saw him caught off his line, which enabled Chris Regis slot home into an empty net to score his first goal for United.
Then it was the turn of substitute Brett Williams to get in on the goalscoring act as he opened his account for the campaign with a quickfire brace - in the 79th and 84th minutes respectively - the second of which was a 25-yard left footed strike.
Andrews then managed to round off the scoring in injury time with a shot on the turn - following good work from fellow Bristol City loanee Saikou Janneh - as the Gulls secured their first FA Cup victory since November 2011, when they beat Chesterfield in the first round proper.
In addition to this, the scoreline also surpasses United's previous record FA Cup win, which was a 7-1 victory over Northampton Town in 1959.
The Gulls will be joined in the third qualifying round by Tiverton Town, who beat Dorchester Town 2-0 through a River Allen free-kick and a Levi Landricombe penalty, and Taunton Town - who won 4-0 against AFC Bitton.
Weston Super Mare will require a replay after drawing 2-2 with Salisbury FC, and Truro City and Hereford FC will meet again at Plainmoor on Wednesday night following a goalless draw at Edgar Street.
However, Plymouth Parkway will not be joining them in Monday's draw after they lost 3-1 to Gloucester City.
