Been chatting to these guys this morning. Nice bunch, will follow their progress. Both teams have, I think, picked charities that appeal to me.

Good luck to them, hopefully we will cheer them off when they leave.

Good luck to them indeed, a friend of mine is doing the Talisker next year,
I wonder why someone thought that there needed to be two Atlantic rowing races. It's a bit sad to have only two entrants.

This year's Talisker on their way, left 12th December.

There are loads going on everywhere, not just Atlantic. Seems to be the big challenge now.

Chatted to them yesterday. Turns out one boat was owned by an acquaintance of ours, Gareth Reynolds from Dale sailing

A partner of a work colleague is currently doing the Tallisker this year - their fund-raising target to complete the challenge was in the order of £150-200k if I recall correctly. Seemed an inordinate amount of money
