Firstly, many appologies for not updating this as regularly as I should have.

After the weather canceling our dates several times time ran out for Marcel as he had already booked tickets back home (New Zealand)

So I enlisted a friend (Craig) who was willing to take Marcel's position.

Our support craft told us we had only a month or 2 left before our chance would be over for the season, we booked in as many slots as we could with them.

Again and again we got postponed due to weather, annoyingly it seemed we had the worst luck.

5 times we had everyone ready to go, extras on support craft, Mental Health Foundation (thanks Simon for all your time), and media (Barcroft media was amazing, Liam you were there all the way with us)

Unfortunatly all our slots came and went, and every time was cancelled.

I had hopes of trying again this year in the summer.

Until recently we had to shift flat, and with it our lovely back garden that stored the bottle boat.

So alas the bottle boat went to bottle boat heaven...

and here the story ends ( for the mean time)

All the money given will go to the Mental Health Foundation.

 

Thanks  to everyone for your support.

 

Cameron and Marcel
