Earlier this evening, the boat crossed the finishing line and was met with a welcome party offering fruit, champagne and rum punch together with a steel band. The crew are all tired and when I spoke to Tom just now, the others had gone for a shower whilst he was sitting at the nav table filling out the immigration forms. Groan… Poor skipper … all work, even now filling in blooming forms…
Doubt if he’ll need much rocking tonight.
Unofficially he is 1st, but that has to be ratified when all hope of Dolfijn arriving to overtake him on handicap has gone….
Love to all supporters,

hurrah! Glad to hear they’re all in safely – and super=stoked that they’re in 1st place!
tonight was going to be an alcohol-free midweek night – but we’re drinking a fresh bottle of shampoo to celebrate instead!!!
well done to you all – what a great team!
