In September 2012 Natasha sailed “MissIsle Too” around the Isle of Wight in her first charity challenge, raising over £17,000. She was in full control of helm and sails thanks to the Sip and Puff technology installed on the new boat. She had to be at Cowes Yacht Haven around 05:00 for her boat to be ready, support boats in place and then off out to the start. The Royal Yacht Squadron signalled the start of the challenge with one of their brass canon at 06:00. It was a very good day for sailing and Natasha crossed the finish line at 18:25 to the roar of another canon from the Squadron. This challenge raised £17,758 which was shared between Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust, RNLI and Scope.
