From the Race Site: “A crew of Watford based taxi drivers who were considered rank outsiders when they entered the race are now contenders for their class prize in the 2008 Round Britain Race. The performance of skipper Barry Deakin on the opening leg between Portsmouth and Plymouth on Saturday confounded the pundits but this was no fluke. After having to transport their boat overland to Milford Haven when high seas forced the second leg to be abandoned, they repeated the performance on Monday by using navigational tactics. Despite choosing the longer course off the Irish coast between Milford Haven and Bangor NI in an attempt to seek shelter from a strong South Westerly wind, it was a gamble that paid off and they hit the finish in tenth place overall to collect first prize in the RB2 class. ” – Go Hard Boys!
