单选题Solar Trophy: Call to Competitors The Solar Trophy, inaugurated one year ago with only three boats completing an ocean crossing from Cape Town to Hobart, has established itself as a truly unique event in the calendar of ocean racing. Each of the 20 meter boats was powered only by the energy provided by solar panels. The race was won by a four-man team captained by Hans Larssen from Stockholm aboard lcarus 2. Following the success of the first race, the race committee has decided to hold the event every three years. Teams wishing to participate in the next edition of the race are hereby invited to submit their applications. The full application package and race regulations can be downloaded from the Solar Trophy website (www://solartrophy.org). The organizers would like to remind applicants that only solar-powered yachts are authorized to compete and that all vessels must correspond to the specifications in the race regulations. If you have additional questions regarding the application process, please contact Carmen Johannsen by e-mail at C.Johannsen@solartrophy.org or by telephone on 04 95 35 47. To: Hank Martin From: Anna Sabiani Date: August 23 11:47 Subject: Promotional opportunity Hi, Hank, I am forwarding the press release about the Solar Trophy that I mentioned to you this morning. I met Bill Bradley, the race coordinator, at the solar energy conference in Manila where he was giving a presentation about the event. I understand from him that the first race was a huge success and generated enormous media coverage both in traditional media and on the Internet. For the next edition of the race he is expecting applications from as many as twenty yachts from seven different countries, including Japan. He suggested that we might like to sponsor one of the crews especially as we are already supplying marine versions of our solar panels to a number of boatyards in Europe and Asia. He particularly recommended that we contact Sven Hadrada of SailYard boats as they are apparently considering entering the race. We've both worked with SailYard on several occasions. Do you think you could contact them as soon as possible and set up a meeting to explore ways of working together on this? You could arrange to supply our solar panels free of charge in exchange for appropriate publicity space onboard and in the press. Best regards Anna
