Hi Mark,
I received a text from Natalie at 16:20. She wrote " the last time we saw land was at 9:30 this morning and we don't expect to see land for another 6 hours due to moderate visibility."
I just checked " findmespot" and it seems to have stopped at 18:39. They should get there by 11pm
All the best

We were on the edge too!

They stayed with us when they passed through the Solent area.

Amazing to see the increased daily mileage over the last week! They've been on a mission!

Well done guys.
