Are they CRAZY?????

This arrived in the marina today

yep it really is that small
It's going to be rowed across the atlantic to Barbados (if the wind blows in the right direction) by a couple of middle-aged Germans. No, really.
They were going to leave from the Canaries but the Spanish wouldn't let them (no insurance apparently but they probably didn't want the responsibility and the rescue costs)
The couple will be totally alone. They don't even have a support boat (at least they've got a satphone!)

Makes me feel quite silly being afraid of going in a yacht :)

I surrender!
