We promised to follow your adventures and we are – it doesn’t seem long since you brought Blossom in to school for us to see! Hard to believe you’re now both out on the ocean. I’m talking in assembly on Friday about resilience and your challenge epitomises it perfectly. I’ll be showing the pupils your latest video diary and updates. The thought of being strapped in to your bunk for 3 days with that flag flapping above your head is not something I can easily imagine. I hope you’re in good spirits and physically well.
Best wishes.
Andy & all at St Olave’s School, York
Hi Charlie,
You may have guessed by the name, …..I am Sarah’s Mum…and am watching your progress as I shall be watching hers when she departs Choshi too.
Take care , that there ocean is BIG and brash……………………BUT I hope that “she” ( the ocean,) holds you gently as you make your way across. Enjoy the whales and the other wildlife , but most of all………….STAY SAFE!!!!!!!
Best wishes,
Helen Outen

Hours few to push before your epic trip. As your rowing partner for the New York to UK row in 2006 I can understand what emotions you are currently going through. Charlie you have one tough task ahead but I believe with your strength and spirit you can do it. We spent many an hour getting to know each other and those memories will last a lifetime. Charlie, we wish you all the best for your journey, what you are doing is amazing. Take care and stay safe. Ben, Sarah, Georgia and Morgan Fouracre.
From one Martell to another.
This one also Solent/New Forest, but exiled in Devon.
I wish you all the very best Charlie in your adventures, and safe returns.
John Martell.
Decided to check up on you again and what crazy thing I find you about to do! You can do this if anybody can! Now I know what you are up to I will check more regulary.
Many thanks for coming to talk to the children at Beaudesert Park School last Saturday. They all really enjoyed it and I am sure you have inspired more than one to achieve. We wish you the very best of luck with your row and I’m sure the School would love to have you back to tell your tales on your return. The children will be following you on the school plasma screens and will also be looking out for the logo on the oars!
Kind regards

Your sister came into my shop in Cirencester (The Nutrition Centre) and I was asking her about the jacket she was wearing. It was advertising your adventure. I have now looked you up and as a fellow sailor who has sailed across the Pacific, all be it in a 120 foot sailing yacht mostly along the equator and not an 8 foot rowing boat up north, I would like to wish you the very best of luck. I hope all goes well and I will be following your progress on the internet. It is an amazing thing that you are doing……go for it !!!
Hi Charlie, It was an honour, and a pleasure to meet you. I hope all goes well with your venture. We need both heros and lunatics – both of your endearing qualities. David
