It was time to make up for all the de-forestation the scribblings of yachting hacks had caused down the years.

And so humbly I joined a crew from Practical Boat Owner, Dinghy Magazine and the RYA publications team to face a panel of exhibitors at the London Boat Show’s Green Blue environment quiz chaired by TV’s Philippa Forrester.

We were set a series of 10 questions about the environment and beat the exhibitors’ team soundly.
