The Eddystone Challenge 2004

The Eddystone challenge is organised by the Mayflower Offshore Rowing Club in Plymouth. This is a Row from Plymouth out to the Eddystone Lighthouse and back - a distance of about 25 miles.

This year we we entered a mixed crew. Liz Bradshaw, Sally Bellamy, Phil Sanderson, Dave Legg, and Gareth Storey. 

Training for the event was somewhat a bit hit and miss this year. But as it turned out the weather on the day was fantastic and we did it in a faster time than last year - 5 hours and 36 minutes.

The only other boat in our class was a crew from MORC and as usual we didn't see them for dust, hey but who cares we had a good day.

Many thanks to MORC for organising such a great event, I very much expect we will be back next year.
