[Rick Willoughby]

Does anyone still monitor this forum?

The MR 340 is intended to start at 7am on Tuesday 12 August.

There are two propeller driven pedal boats competing in the human powered section and a stabilised monohull competing in the electric power division.

Some details posted here on the two pedal boats:

The electric boat is being painted today so it will not be tested before the race.  This link is a render of the boat:

It is based on a two person pedal boat platform with electrics replacing one of the pilots.  This link shows 8m long main hull before fitout:
