Actors James and Oliver Phelps participated in the
Cowes Week Artemis Challenge at the Isle of Wight earlier this week, where the twins set sail on a boat race with Sir Robin Knox-Johnston to benefit the
Royal National Lifeboat Institution. Photos of the now-ginger twins (dyed for
Deathly Hallows filming) can be seen

UPDATE: James
spoke about his and Oliver's involvement in the sail:
Quote:
‘It was fantastic experience to sail with Sir Robin. Coming from Birmingham we were not used to the sea but learnt loads of new skills. Unfortunately, we didn't win but had the wind been up I think we would have been in with a chance. The RNLI is a great cause that we were really happy to represent. We have met so many great people today but none more so than the RNLI volunteer lifeboat crew.’
