Why is it all women?

1) Women are still underrepresented in sailing and STEM careers, eXXpedition is passionate about providing female role models in these fields.

2) The plastic and toxics we find in the marine environment have also been shown to impact women in different ways to how they impact men. Some of these toxics are hormone inhibitors and endocrine disruptors, which can affect fertility and cause diseases like cancer.
