Thrift Energy Atlantic Challenge

Good morning all. They managed to dry the cabin out yesterday so they have had a much better nights sleep and are bright and breezy today.
Andy fell victim to a rogue wave whilst rowing. The wind, the waves and the route are all in the same direction however sometimes a wave "torpedoes" them sideways. This one was so fierce that it nearly knocked Andy overboard. It was only the spare oar which prevented this happening . Sean said, "There was no serious damage, just bruising," I wonder if Andy feels the same?
