A charity auction being held in aid of the Island’s hospice is set to wow bidders, with an unforgettable offshore experience topping the bill.
An amazing day out with the Arpro Powerboat team, which would usually cost £1600, has been donated to the auction by Extremeboats of Southampton. The Arpro powerboat has just won the Powerboat P1 World Championship and now you can have the chance to experience all the excitement of this extreme opportunity. First, let the adrenalin build as you join the crew in Southampton getting the boat ready, and then get on the water and reach speeds of 80mph as you hurtle across the Solent. To see Arpro in action, visit www.extremeboat.com.
Along with the powerboat experience, other items on auction include a signed Rio Ferdinand Manchester United Shirt, and a tour of Parliament. You can get your bids in online now at the address given below, or bid at the live auction at the Huge Hospice Quiz on the 9th of November in Shanklin. Promising to be a great night out, the event sees not only the conclusion of the auction, but also a great quiz organised by Parlex, which has proved hugely popular in the past.
The Hospice needs to raise over £2million every year to provide the care to patients facing life-threatening conditions, and it is thanks to events such as this that allow such a tremendous service to continue.
