‘Float your boat’ fundraising competition launched!

I have launched my summer competition which is something all ages can get involved with, all money raised going toward my round the world sailing adventure. To take part you need to buy an official ‘float your boat’ competition boat which cost £1.25 each (this is equivalent to one mile of my 40,000 mile sailing journey). The challenge is to ‘float your boat’ in either the most unusual place you can think of or take it the furthest you can from your own postcode and take a photo as evidence of doing this. Photos are then emailed in to crewsupporter@ruthsailstheworld.org.uk by 6th September. The winners of each category will be announced on www.ruthsailstheworld.org.uk Winners will receive a postcard during the 2015/16 Clipper Race and the winning photos will be put onto a t-shirt that sails round the world with me.
If you would like to take part please contact me (ruth@ruthsailstheworld.org.uk) to arrange getting your official ‘float your boat’.

Thanks for taking part and good luck!
