Climate Emergency
Electric propulsion systems have been around for a while and are developing all the time. Power boat users can now seriously consider transitioning to zero emission propulsion and our Challenge will allow anyone interested to come along and have a look at an electric RIB at over 40 locations around the UK and Northern Ireland.
​
Zero emission propulsion reduces the use of fossil fuels but also reduces water and noise pollution.
​
Come and see us at one of our STOP Locations!
​
Charity Auction
The charity auction is now open on our eBay shop!
​
We have a wide selection of kit, most of which was used for the challenge. Some branded and unbranded.
​
All profits go towards covering the costs of the challenge. Any money left over after covering costs will go towards marine and environmental charities.
Shore Power and Charging
We can charge using a wide variety of shore power connections. The larger the connection the faster the charge.
​
Standard marina facilities provide an AC supply but as with electric cars, a faster charge can be delivered from a DC fast charger. Where we can, we will be charging at DC chargers which have already been installed at some marinas in the UK.
​
To speed up our charging time at others where only an AC supply is available we will be taking a mobile DC charger with us. This can connect to a standard 3 phase shore power socket and can charge at rates of up to 40kW.
