When I checked first time they were leading!!!
Now in a steady 5th place they appear to be getting into a good rythym.
Is there any way to get in touch with them while they are out there?

John rang us (his auntie and uncle) from the sat phone on Wednesday. They are both fine, but bored with eating, sleeping and rowing. They are now hoping to pick up the pace and really start racing, and I see from their progress since that they are! They said to thank all their sponsors and supporters.
