After nine months of hard work, campaigning and fundraising, CRRU finally received their new boat this week.
The bespoke vessel - an 8 metre Humber RHIB with twin 150hp Yamaha outboards - was outfitted by Yampower Marine in Glasgow at cost price! The company called in favours from all their suppliers to support the build. Funding was principally provided by the Born Free Foundation, Land Rover UK, LUSHCosmetics, the Weir Charitable Trust, the Oak Foundation, Alborada Trust, Michael Marks Charitable Trust and many others, plus numerous contributions from our amazing supporters and members of the public. We can't express how grateful we are and how much this new vessel will allow CRRU to expand and upgrade its ongoing conservation work :-))))))
