Caernarfon

After what sounds like a very testing passage from Barmouth in big sea with most of the team offloading their lunch, Beeline arrived at the first stop in the early morning light. All looked relieved to have made it in one piece. three other boats have retired. The intrepid runners set off at 4:45 and did a cracking time of 5 hours, overtaking another team's pair on the road back into town. Beeline is now running in 21st, and on her way up the Straits. Photo is the 'after' shot with the runners looking happy t0 have one done. Hopefully better weather from now on (posted by Lucy)

Kate says: We dropped the runners and went to anchor and have a sleep but our short night was disturbed by the tide turning and the boat crashing into the Lucky Tarte. We moved offshore but then were alarmed to find we were dragging out to sea. Luckily this coincided with Steve and Andy returning and Kelly celebrated by making some fabulous fruit porridge which filled us all with warmth and energy ready for Menai.
