People's Boat off to the Caribbean

Alex has just been confirmed as the Guest Speaker onboard a 2 week P&O cruise to the Caribbean in April.

Alex will give a series of 8 lectures on Ocean Racing, representing his country and the preparations for the People's Boat campaign.

'A great opportunity to talk to a captive audience of 3000 people.' Alex commented.

With talks now very advanced with a potential title sponsor for the campaign, things are getting very exciting. An existing boat is lined up to buy, and there is also the potential to have a new boat designed and built before the race.

'We have been talking to a leading Class 40 designer about the prospect of a new boat designed for us specifically for the Global Ocean Race - this is very exciting proposition indeed and we just need to get the funding in place first'

  1. It must be tough having to go on an all expenses paid trip to the Caribbean. Tell me, how do I get on this gig!?
