Round Britain Erib

Proud sponsors of the Round Britain erib

Round Britain erib. Follow this remarkable story of Harry Besley and is voyage round Britain.

This summer Harry will attempt a new world record by being the first (and youngest!) person ever to circumnavigate Britain in an electric powerboat, or at least get as far as he can! Harry is just 18 years old.

His mission is to inspire people to start using new electric boating technology that is better for the environment.

This is better for the environment than a traditional motorboat because it is powered by electricity instead of fossil fuels. But it means that he will need to find lots of stopping places to keep recharging the eRIB’s batteries.

Energy Solutions are proud to be a VIP sponsor for his stop at Ramsgate, Kent. We’ll be cheering him on and have the opportunity to get up close to the Crew and the Challenge vessel.

As well as being better for the climate, electric boats are also cleaner and quieter than fossil fuel-powered motorboats. They don’t give out as much pollution in the water, which makes it a nicer environment for everyone!

Follow the adventure as the 18 year old Skipper attempts to travel around Britain in an electric RIB. See the struggles, challenges and setbacks he faces and watch the story unfold. Harry’s progress round the British coast will be checked with a live tracker online.
