Harry’s team reached out to see if we could help, and once organised our high-performance cases provided the perfect solution for transporting and protecting delicate electronic equipment, ensuring that the electric propulsion system remained operational throughout the demanding journey.

The route took Harry across diverse marine environments, from the calm waters of the English Channel to the turbulent seas of the North Atlantic. Despite facing numerous challenges, including inclement weather and technical difficulties, Harry persevered.

Throughout his journey, Harry shared his experiences and updates with the world, inspiring countless individuals to consider the possibilities of electric propulsion and sustainable marine practices.
