Just four full days ashore in Boston flew by at an alarming pace and to be honest I never quite had the chance to fully catch up on my sleep or take some time out, aside from a brief shopping trip. The race certainly took more out of me than I had bargained for.

Samantha Davies and the battle-worn Roxy crossed the finish line of The Artemis Transat just before midnight last night, after 15 days and 10 hours. Roxy is the first British Yacht to finish this year's Transat.

For the last 24 hours of her sail, Sam battled a biting and gusty 25 to 35 knot headwind, but crossed the line with a huge smile - despite a having a damaged boat, a rough ride, and both skipper and boat enduring a frightening collision with a whale at sea.
