What kind of boat are you building and how much did it cost?&#13;
I'm building a Sailing RowCruiser, and I bought the plans from a company in America called Angus Rowboats (http://angusrowboats.com/sailingrowcruiser.html). They also sell kits, but I live on an island so the shipping would cost more than buying materials locally.&#13;
- $299 boat plans and manual (http://store.angusrowboats.com/Sailing-RowCruiser-p/plans-sailingrowcruiser.htm)&#13;
- $48  hollow shaft, wooden rowing oars plans and manual (http://store.angusrowboats.com/Wooden-Sculling-Oar-Plans-p/plans-oars.htm)&#13;
- $44 sliding seat and rigger manual and plans (http://store.angusrowboats.com/Sliding-Seat-and-Rigger-Plans-p/plans-rigger.htm)&#13;
(Discounted when you buy all three plans). &#13;
&#13;
How did you raise the money to build your boat?&#13;
- Odd jobs on Fiverr: http://tidd.ly/2e993c2e&#13;
- Creating and selling my Alderney colouring book of Alderney on a Saturday market, in local shops, airport, and Amazon UK (http://amzn.to/2bst3e3), and USA (http://amzn.to/2bpRNPY).&#13;
- Paid talks to schools (http://www.schoolspeakers.co.uk/speaker-listings/sarah-weldon)&#13;
- As an extra on film productions (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2916014/)&#13;
- Nightshifts as a cleaner in McDonalds&#13;
- Affiliate Links&#13;
- TES shop: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/sarah277&#13;
&#13;
Who are your sponsors and do they give you money?&#13;
I'm really lucky to work with some awesome people and companies. They don't give me money, but they do give me products and services in kind, and in return I am an Ambassador for them, this brings down the expedition costs for which I'm hugely thankful for. &#13;

                <text>EPISODE 1 of the Great British Viking Quest #GBVQ. &#13;
&#13;
I take a bumpy flight across the ocean to speak at 'The Viking World - Diversity and Change' international conference at the University of Nottingham's Centre for Viking Studies. The event 'marks the anniversary of King Knut's accession to the English throne, and the 950th anniversary of the Norman Conquest, arguably the end of the Viking Age in England. These events marked the end of a period of major transformations - from the voyages and settlements of Scandinavians across the North Sea, the Atlantic and the Baltic, to the conversion of the homelands and the rise of medieval kingship'. Its a wonderful way to begin my #GBVQ solo row around the coast of Britain as I follow the routes and explore the key places and landmarks of the Vikings around our shores. &#13;
