    Adrian Bartlett started out as a skipper and with Andy Hunting he founded "The Crabstock Boys", touring the UK offering cookery demos, including crab picking and fish fileting. He went on to open the successful pop up restaurant "Crab Stock and 2 Smoking Lobsters”.

    Adrian is now Head of Marine Operations at Ecomotus who manufacture the EcoPro hydrogen electrolyzer.

And by reducing CO2 emissions the EcoPro provides cleaner air quality for the crew and lower annual maintenance costs.
