Current ETA (estimated time of arrival)

This is the current earliest ETA from Paul. Sea conditions are getting choppier so this may slip. The RNLI lifeboat is standing by to launch and greet him at the Plymouth breakwater. BBC, ITV and local Radio Devon have been informed. Official finish at Millbay Marina - Plymouth Lifeboat Station.

I shall be going out aboard a friend’s boat to meet him, so this is my last entry.

Current ETA - not before 1630 BST

Plymouth TODAY!

Paul set off from Eastbourne early this morning in a sea of glass, and is shortly arriving in Poole. Given the current sea conditions and that the forecast suggests a few days of bad weather starting tomorrow, Paul has decided simply to refuel at Poole and then set off again straight home to Plymouth! He will probably arrive in Plymouth at around 5pm-6pm this evening, assuming sea state remains suitable for high speed. Taken us all by surprise!
