Harnessing the Wind

Mart ‘the jack of oh so many trades’, came on board about two years ago, how we all met, I’ll leave that story to another day. Anyways, the guy has done some unbelievable things here at Finisterre and in his spare time, he’s a student, he charges low key reefs all over the Soutwest and like ‘JC’, he tries his hand at widdling wood. Over the break he carved out a propeller out of driftwood, snapped on some bolts, bearings etc and we are now half way to converting some wind energy to power our kettle, desk lamps and hopefully TP’s sewing machine.

We took the propeller out for its first spin last night and so far, so good, check the video out below - stoked funsize!

- on a side note, if any customers out there could spare some time to rotate a video file for us, we’d be much obliged, send an email to: info@finisterreuk.com.
