Commando Joe - Independent GB Row 2011
The Commando Joe Team were originally signed up to participate in the Virgin GB Row 2011 Race starting from Tower Bridge, London on 1 June 2011, however due to lack of participants the Anglo American Boat Race Company has cancelled the event. Not wanting to disappoint their charities, the Meningitis Trust and BLESMA, Porky, John, Dave and Pete have decided to undertake an independent row of the UK which will be verified by the Ocean Rowing Society.

busy day, sunday afternoon, spices
So it's Friday the 3rd of June and it's nearly 11:00 at night. We got another busy day with the boat and we finally got it into the water in Scarborough Marina which is a good thing to see. Be nice to load all the food onto it and a load of spices well I'd love to take them all off tomorrow and reload them to make sure that they will be in right order when we need them and tomorrow also will be sorting out the boat for communications make sure the water makes it works along with the host of other things just to make we're all ready to depart hopefully about between 4:00 and 5:00 on Sunday afternoon and that's it this evening. I can give you another update tomorrow.
