-- Boatshow Confirmed!!! --
We have now received final confirmation from the press office of the
London Boatshow that the expedition boat will be displayed as a centre
piece at the main entrance.
 
The Press Office have also asked if Bear Grylls would help open the show with schroders, the boatshow sponsors, on the press day which will be a great opportunity to announce the record attempt to the press.
 
The boat will be on the steps at the front of the show, in the prime place that everyone walks past to enter the main earls court arena. To have been chosen to feature in the main entrance limelight is very exciting for all the team involved.
 
We could not have a more prime spot and this has surpassed all that had been hoped for here!
 
The boat is expected to be 75% completed by the time of the London Boat show - and this will give people the chance to see the detailed workings and construction of the RIB. The completed boat is due for sea-trial delivery in February.
 
At the boatshow people will also be able to see some of the range of equipment that the team will be using, from the latest marine helmets by Gecko, to state of the art, Sartech epirb rescue beacons. Also on display will be some of the extreme survival clothing made for this attempt by Musto clothing as well as details on the revolutionary new fuel additive from Soltron.
