Build Launch learn.

This miniboat was launched in Rhode Island, USA in March 2020 and sailed the Atlantic unaided, except by its own sail to arrive on Avon Beach in November 2020. It was found by a teacher from Tiptoe Primary School who passed it on to Mudeford Sailing Clubs Bosun to sort out!

The Mudeford Sea Scouts took on the project of revamped her and now she is going to be shipped aboard an Atlantic rowing boat, the Ebb and Flow team, from Christchurch, to La Gomera in the Canary Islands. She will then be set adrift to sail the Atlantic once again and to probably follow the trade winds to the Caribbean, departure planned for end of November. On board is a tracking GPS which means everyone can track her progress on educationalpassages.org/boats/inspiration. She is also carrying a pile of postcards written by the Scouts to try and make connection with the recipients in the place of landing. 

The BBC picked up this story when the boat arrived Here
