Ocean Challenge

 

The latest news about DuoGen’s sponsorship of Jim Shekhdar’s upcoming trip from New Zealand to South Africa.

Jim’s customised DuoGen has now been delivered to the boatyard in Cornwall where his specially-built ‘rowboat’ is going through its final fitting out.
Jim sees DuoGen as a critical piece of equipment, providing power and warmth. If you remember from our earlier report, the DuoGen will be permanently mounted centrally in the boat, with the alternator in the ‘dry’ cabin where Jim will sleep. An air stream is ducted past the alternator, picking up heat and warming the cabin, keeping it dry and cosy.

We have provided three sets of blades to go with the machine, one full sized, one 66% and one 40% of full size. The shorter blades can be changed in seconds and, having a lower intercept area, will give Jim maximum flexibility in the severe conditions to be expected in the Southern Ocean.

The boat, as yet nameless, is due to be shipped out to New Zealand to arrive in mid-August, and the row is set to begin in mid-September when Jim leaves Invercargill.
Look out for news of Jim and his super row boat, with its special DuoGen yaw arm, in magazines, newspapers and on TV in the next few weeks.

Eclectic Energy on TV

 

Eclectic Energy Limited is located in Edwinstowe, a Nottinghamshire village in the heart of Robin Hood country.
In spite of this rural location, we enjoy the benefits of broadband Internet access, thanks to Nottinghamshire Enterprises which provides this service to businesses at Edwinstowe House where we are based.
This was the subject of one of the items on The Politics Show on BBC1 on Sunday 15th June, and Eclectic Energy was one of the featured companies.
Eclectic Energy is also featured as one of the case studies in a new promotional pack and interactive CD, recently produced by Trade Partners UK.
So, if you have any connections with that particular organisation, check out their latest Passport to Export folder.
