About Oli's Channel Challenge

Help us raise £10,000

Oliver Hancox, 14 yrs old, from Devon has set himself the challenge of crossing the English Channel and raise money for Cancer Research in memory of his Dad.

Oliver is planning to set sail May 2010 in a 1969 Silhouette called "Cariad" - meaning "Love" in Welsh.

The boat has now been restored and is kept in Plymouth with the very kind support of Mayflower Marina.

Studying for my RYA
Dayskipper. Really interesting to learn
about everything I need to plan for the trip to
France.

Cariad is also now on
dry land for the final
prep - she's having
new sails and electrics fitted.
