After a fraught Monday night, battling harsh conditions in the darkness , we are now enjoying a wonderful sunny day.

The early hours saw us attempting to negotiate the Isle of Wight, whilst manoeuvring amongst several large passenger ferries and tankers. Our planned lay up point did not materialise and it was a further 3 hours before we finally felt back on track.

Today could not have been more different with gentle breeze and flattish waters. Team in good spirits, enabling us to race past the Isle of Wight and onward

Thanks to everyone for all your support and messages, they really do make a difference.
