After days and days of huge waves, the waves just get bigger and the wind stronger. Yesterday was particularly trying as we both keep getting doused with water day and night – with no way to dry kit off, due to the lack of sun, it doesn’t make for a pleasurable time. Sally, what happened to ‘just take some long sleeved tee shirts for night time’? We’re still wearing winter woolies down here! |

This New Year will certainly be one to remember and unfortunately not all for good reasons. The waves and wind have been so tiring for us that it has seen us both break down in tears at different stages through the day and night. We’re both exhausted from constant fighting to keep the boat pointing in the right direction and when you get hit with yet another huge wave, soaking you from head to toe, you eventually break. |

We’ve been rowing non stop over Christmas and it looks set to continue over the New Year. Although the 2 hours on/off routine is exhausting, it seems to be working well for us – bar the odd oversleeping incidence. And an alarm clock that is worse than useless. We’re going to have a ritual smashing up of the clock in Antigua – you just can’t get the blooming thing to go off at the right time and it has caused no end of confusion in the night! |

Like London Buses – you don’t get any for a long time and then loads come at once. In this case we’re talking about visits to our boat in various ways! |
