THE two adventurers from Idle rowing across the Atlantic are doing well after experiencing some bad weather.

Chris Nicholl and James Tordoff are now five days into the weeks-long Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge.

Hell Oar High Water are in fourth place in the pairs class having completed 239 nautical miles with 2,410 still to go.

A post on Facebook from their team yesterday said: "We have spoken to the boys today and they are doing well, they experienced some bad weather last night (along with most teams) and used their Para-Anchor until the winds changed.

"They have some sore feet and bums but are in good spirits and happy to be moving again."

The duo are raising money for three charities. Go to hohw.co.uk for more information.
