Now docking in Portsmouth. We will all be glad to get off this tub, force 8 gale and 8 meter swell overnight. There were quite a few poorly people around this morning. Beer and swells don't necessarily mix! We should be home in 6 hours from here. Silver TDV6 HSE

Home at last! Betsy made it, running a bit rough, but all in one piece. Robs D1 was faultless the whole challenge and journey, except a crushed rear body mount, which was caused by a combo of rust/weight/special stage with a big drop.
Now need to sort out some photos. Silver TDV6 HSE
