Just to let you know we arrived back in the UK safely this morning.
The event was amazing and it was fantastic to spend such an exciting time with my two boys (yes 8 year old Jack decided to come along at the last minute).
We completed the trip in 15 days, four hours, 16 minutes and one second, clocking up 5,942km. We had some really scary moments and saw lots of amazing sunsets, sunrises, dolphins, flying fish etc.
We started the event just for the challenge of crossing the Atlantic and to raise money for charity, but within 7 days the racing bug kicked in and we decided to go full out to get a good result. In the end we crossed the finishing line first in our class of boat and 2nd in our division, plus as a team raised a lot of money for various charities. Although we have stopped taking donations over the phone (now that the event has finished), you can still donate online for "Water in Africa" at http://www.justgiving.com/steve-bennett0.
Anyway, back in the business today and lots of great and exciting things happening at Rocks TV over the next 4 weeks.
Have a great Christmas and happy New Year
