So we're almost at 9 hours now!
As you've heard from the boat, Wayne is now feeding strongly again (that's our boy!) which seems to indicate that he is not taking in too much sea water... Nigel mentioned that it is becoming just a little nippy on the boat and the sun is a little hazy at the moment. The captain has asked Wayne to pick up his speed a bit to avoid being dragged too much once the tide turns (actually started turning at 2) and Wayne has responded strongly. His stroking at about 53 strokes a minute at the moment, which is great.
Another interesting fact is that this boat and captain accompanied David Walliams on his crossing, for the English followers. (For all others, here is a link - David is a celebrity comedian in the UK)
