Hurricanes Dragonboat Crew - The Needles Challenge

This is a unique paddling challenge and an absolute first, as its never been attempted in a Dragonboat. Our goal is for two crews to paddle across the Solent from Lee-on-Solent Sailing Club to the Needles on the Isle of Wight and return to the RNLI base in Lymington Harbour. The paddle is approx 30 miles in total and we're aiming to do it in about 4 hours, our obstacles are that we're on the sea, in a tidal estuary and navigating across busy shipping lanes
