Hi to all of you Ferkin followers!  We are feeling OK today and were cheered up by the sight of another boat on the horizon, especially as it turned out to be a British ship which we spoke to on the VHF radio, warning them of our position.  We watched as they went past - quite exciting really.  It’s hot today but rowing conditions are good as there is not much wind and we are heading in a good westerly direction.  Hopefully you are following our progress on the tracker.We are now both settling into the routine and even getting into the food although neither of us are keen on the freeze-dried sweet and sour lamb, but the spag bol is good.  We are starting to see more and more marine life and along with the sharks we even had a flying fish land on the Ferkin yesterday!  Thank you for all your support and please post any questions on the blog comments that you would like us to answer and we will do our best to get back to you.Looking forward to having a beer with you all!Guy Out X
