COUNTDOWN TO ROW ….. WHO'S COUNTING 😳🤔?!

Winter in Hartlepool Marina slumbers in the open air, wearing on its smiling face a dream of spring! ……and so for team GREENS2BLUE it meant another already well trodden journey to Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex to pick up Brizo from @rannochadventure. All minor repairs and equipment additions completed and she looked fabulous in her new “wrap” care of @fordesigns_1974. Big high five 🙌 to our Skip Imelda who came up with idea of the design.

Drinks & Canapés

Our Headline Sponsor - Begbies Traynor Group have been nothing short of world class, with us on every step of our campaign. On the 20th March they hosted sponsors, supporters and their clients at The Alwoodley Golf Club to cast their eye over Brizo, moored alongside in the car park and during drinks and nibbles were provided with a little bit more information about what is actually involved in rowing an Ocean. Hopefully, everyone had an enjoyable evening and found the team Q&A session illuminating!

Back in the Water

The final step before actually getting back out on the North Sea was “launching” Brizo into the water at Hartlepool Marina. Due respect to be paid to Neptune following the boat’s name change and the small matter of actually rowing the 3000 miles! The good news is that we have surrounded ourselves with great people who are helping us on our journey. Our ongoing thanks to Gus Barton@ocean_ready , @duncroy1 ,@aron1664 and @matrix_performance.
