Our apprentices at The Pioneer Sailing Trust work on commercial projects, building Harker's Yard rowing gigs. The first 19 gigs were built from a cold-moulded construction, using three layers of mahogany. These wooden coastal rowing gigs are based on an East Coast design, specifically adapted for racing. They are slightly shorter (24ft) than traditional Cornish gigs and are rowed by a crew of four, plus a coxswain. These gigs are a key part of the coastal rowing scene in the East of England, with the Harker's Yard Gig Association (HYGA) organising a popular winter racing series. The current gigs are a composite version of the East Coast gig with the same specification, but instead of cold-mouldered, the hull is made from fibreglass with a wooden fitout and built-in buoyancy. With thanks to the The National Lottery Heritage Fund and the National Lottery players for help in supporting our projects! #thepioneersailingtrust #HarkersYard #Pioneer #Rowing #HarkersYardGigAssociation #HeritageFundUK

Tribute to Mama Piru. «An incredible woman and ambassador of the Race for Water foundation left us. I met Mama Piru during our first odyssey in May 2015 when we came to study the marin plastic wastes on the Island of the Rapa Nui. She quickly opened her doors and gave her trust. She is a leader who dedicated her life to preserve the heritage, the culture and the environment of the Island. An engaging person, animated by a strength and faithless. She fought everyday to improve the Rapa Nui conditions. She stand for her people in front of the United Nations and the brought together people. Mama Riu will stay in our heart forever. What a joy to have met her and gain her trust. A heartfelt thanks to you, Mama Piru. » Marco Simeoni. The Race for Water Foundation is dedicated to the preservation of the water and the oceans in particular. Today, seriously under threat from plastic pollution, it is imperative that this essential resource for life is protected.To prevent plastic waste from reaching the waterways and oceans by developing social models and business models that give value to plastic waste and hence encourage its collection.
