Round Britian Boats

Is there anyone entering RB8 from BM entering and if so are they willing to show a picture of the boat. I know realise how hush hush this can be.

you lot should plant a forest to offset your carbon levels, just wait till Codpeace or whatever they are called hear about it
On a serious note how you going to deal with that lobby & possible sponsor knock on effects. Being a very clicky issue at the mo cant make it easy to find one?

I was thinking more of the event.
Ie the last one, Everest now use energy saving as a strong selling point , so involvement could be a double edge sword for them. With the enviros just having the sharper blade so to speak. This may be an issue for any likley sponsors then maybe not

EDIT
Errr can we change the title it's spelt Britain not Britian. Dont want to confuse any of the possible Colonies that might be thinking about it

That has been one of my concerns. 55 boats burning approx 1 mile to the gallon 55 x 1600 = lots of fuel the old carbon emission group won't like it much.

Still its only the amunt of fuel a few jumbo jets burn across the atlantic.
