AN AUTONOMOUS SOLAR BOAT AND ITS EPIC JOURNEY

After 27 failed attempts from people around the world, Canadian keynote speakers and National Geographic Adventurers of the Year, Julie and Colin Angus have put their hat into the ring. They are attempting the first successful autonomous solar boat crossing of the Atlantic. Why try this? The obvious attraction is to receive the renowned Guinness World record award but over and above this, Julie and Colin are looking to showcase technological innovation, promote environmental stewardship and collaborate with schools to inspire future generations.
