Sir Ben is the guest of honour at what is a massive event for Hovertravel. His task - to launch two brand new, locally built hovercraft, representing a £10M investment. It appears that Sir Ben couldn't even be bothered to shave, let alone wear a suit or jacket and tie! He looks like he's just nipping out to the shops for a paper and this inconvenience has cut into his day. It's just another public appearance that his agent has arranged. Turn up, take the money, go home? Disgraceful, Sir Ben!
Beautiful craft, and a wonderful ceremony. Someone probably feels rather underdressed though. Not much of a speech prepared either. Wonder how much he got paid for that?
I wish they would bring back the massive Seaspeed hovercraft that crossed the channel in the 70's! Its a step forward anyway - boats are becoming outdated! Good Grief doesnt Ben Ainslie OWN a suit or a razor??? Everyone else has 'made the effort' except him he actually looked BORED!
Proud to be a Pompey girl. Never tire of flying on ( and watching) these wonderful craft.

What no suit and tie?

Shameful though, that no mention was made of the Engineering Genius, Sir Christopher Cockerall. Without which none of this would have been possible.
Hear! Hear!
