I have put together some clips from the camera we had on board:

Woo hoo! We’ve made it!

Finally made it into Portpatrick harbour. 6 hours 58 minutes. Feel absolutely shattered. The Pink Avenger did us proud in some quite big seas. Luckily the wind was never head on. Thanks so much to everyones support and help, it has been amazing. Going to eat and drink and stretch!

We are setting off at 0530 tomorrow. Forecast looking ok until mid afternoon when wind picks up from north west. Let’s hope we can make good way before then! This is the big one!

Travelling north

Travelling up to Portpatrick in the rain before the launch tomorrow morning. The team in good spirits! Although some concern about the force 5 northerly forecast for tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully an earlier start will be enough!

All set for launch on Saturday

Everything is looking good for the Irish channel attempt on Saturday! The weather is looking calm with a gentle Westerly wind and clear skies. For this reason we are aiming to depart from Donaghadee in Ireland . heading over to Portpatrick, Scotland.  The pedalo is primed and bristling with anticipation, much like its pedalees! Thank you so much for all the support given so far, although we hope to continue raising funds for a while yet. We will be joined by the support boat on Friday night in Ireland and will make a final decision early on Saturday morning.
