Yes she is finally on the water! Craned in this morning and rowed round to our berth. Still a bit of finishing touches to be made but we will be ready for the race come Sunday.  More photos will be added to the photo gallery page shortly.

For those of you tracking the race either through our website or the official Woodvale site there is also an additional tracking website for the support yacht.  Desiderata is skippered by Mark Terry of Rowtec and you can see where she is throughout the race at http://blog.mailasail.com/desi. They will be putting pictures and messages up of the boats they come across during the race. 

As the final touches to the Flying Ferkins boat get put into place, the opportunity for friends and family to leave a small motivational message has come about. The message will get written inside the cabin using a “magic pen”!

Please leave your message in the comments section below.

This will mean alot to the boys so the more the merrier.
