This summer sees the start of a gruelling, non-stop 1760 mile race around Britain and Ireland. A group of young, talented British sailors are keen to rise to this challenge but in order to do this we need your help!
The race is a truly international sailing event entered by some of the world's most elite sailors. With an average age of 22, this young crew will have their work cut out in order to be successful.
We have use of the grand prix race boat and the backing of the RYA and UKSA, but still require significant finances to cover boat maintenance, sails, food and coaching.
By donating as little as £5 you will be able to sponsor us for 1 mile of the race. Anyone who sponsors 5 miles will be entered into a prize draw to win a day sailing with the team, which will provide the once-in-a-lifetime chance to sail a high performance 52’ racing yacht.
The team have already spent months in the boat shed over the winter preparing the boat, hours in the gym ensuring their fitness is up to the task and have recently started training on the water. They now need your help to raise the necessary additional funds to compete in the race.
