Cabin time over // Day 19 & 20
Yesterday was very frustrating for Quincey as he had planned to get stuck into getting the boat back in rowing shape but the weather did not ease enough. He therefore spent another very frustrating day in the cabin.
Today Shaun woke quite positive as the seas had died down substantially. He spent the morning fixing his steering and getting the sea anchor untangled and then got on the seat at about midday. Rowing south, he slogged away all afternoon and achieved some reasonable progress as the seas continued to ease. He is now feeling extremely excited about the next few days as he pushes to half way.

Hey Quincey,

Each and every stroke gets you closer to the goal. Hope you had a nice holiday in the cabin, take each challenge as it comes and look at how far you have come.
Yeah! Charge it Quince!
Tear it up big fella.
Bro….The time is coming to ROCK IT!!! Neppy is wilting and you are winning!! Stay strong, fight for your dream – the Vaughans all look forward to seeing you back on Terra Firma this side of the ditch real soon! May the force be with you!
Woohoo, ‘pushing on to halfway’, that’s what we like to hear! This is going to make the wickedest book. There’s a slab of good kiwi beer with your name on it in our fridge – keep rowing! xxx
Hey Quincey, I’ve been away on boat for a week so just caught up. You’re mentally strong mate, hang in there and visualise the outcome. Cam with one missing. The tide is turning and you’ll benefit. Loz
Quincey – Even with all that lying around in the boat and telling people you’re just “tidying your room” you’ve managed to move (and sometimes row) the equivalent of the distance between Auckland and Blenhiem (via Taupo)since you left Aus. To be fair I’ve only worked this out with a ruler held against my computer screen. Obviously total distance is greater. In any event, good going…you probably only get one shot at this. Stay sane!
Keep it up quincey. One stroke at a time.
Keep it up cousin! I think of you every day!
Great to hear you are back in the driver’s seat. Everyone we had to Kawau this hols new of you including Nick Peal and others. You are a special star and we are proud of what you have achieved already. Hope you are doing some sketching on the non-rowing days. Lots of love, The Brown Family
