The Boating Industry Association has formed a formal partnership with record-breaking sailor Lisa Blair, appointing her BIA Sustainability Ambassador.
Lisa has used her profile, which includes being the fastest person to sail solo, non-stop and unassisted around Antarctica on her yacht Climate Action Now and holds eight World Records in sailing, as the foundation for her work to promote awareness of Climate Change and the need for Climate Action.
BIA CEO Andrew Scott said he was delighted to see a person of Lisa’s calibre, grit and determination partner with the association to highlight the need for climate action.
“Our first joint effort with Lisa to raise awareness of the need to care for our environment will be at the 2024 Sydney international Boat Show,” Scott said.
