Great news and a superb achievement. I looked on the website the other day and felt they still had some time to go so it is really good that they have managed to do so well. I could see that the elements made it hard for them, especially over the run in. But a really great result. Dick & Elli Baly
Marvellous news, we are all very proud of George and his achievement. I hope he can enjoy a little rest before going back to work - but not at least having to row the boat home! Nic Marsden
Well done boys. One of the girls in the workshop saw you on the telly in the news this week. We like the shot - "Fitting the seat covers" on the website. Clearly no one got any pressure sores otherwise you would not have finished. Cheers! John O'Brian, Swansea
Great news that the guys have made it to Antigua in record time - please pass our huge congratulations to the crew! Excellent news all round, it's a great achievement for the team and I hope they've been enjoying catching up with family and friends, as well as perhaps having a drink or two in the bar.
