    You’re doing great work otherwise — can’t imagine it’s easy being out there, esp. on a day like today. Thanks for the regular updates. More photos please? The videos don’t load properly at work.

    We can shoot to get you more photos
    … The angle is very wide and unless we are right on top of the boats it’s hard, but we’ll get some more going for you… No problem!!!

    They show for us here… Try and hit refresh… There were many boats on top of one another at the finish, so may taken a little bit of time to sort… All looks to be well now…
