At 0100 yesterday morning we lost our rudder. We have no choice but to call the support boat to see if they can help!

Passed half way! To celebrate we all went swimming, luckily no sharks fancied an easy lunch. 🏊

Spirits are high on the boat despite the tough sea conditions. It's great to get all the messages of support they really help 🚣

Less than 2000 miles to go! Manual steering now working although it needs 2 to row and 1 to steer. Therefore only rowing for 18 hrs a day! 🚣

We've fashioned a manual steering system from a bra strap and a sock. Now heading south to meet the support boat!

We're trying to get the manual steering working. Spares are on route but could be another 2 days. Morale is low but determination is high! 🚣

Lost power again this morning, whilst trying to fix the problem all fuses have blown. Called the support boat for help.

Starting to feel tired and sore. We've seen 7 plastic bottles, 2 wooden crates, 1 jumping fish and had a close call with a tanker!

Good luck to @AtlanticForces - an ex-ULAS member soon to row the Atlantic! ULAS completed a virtual row this summer - it's a long way!
