'We were being battered by the wind and waves to the end'
The four men from Teesside and Yorkshire have completed a 3,000 mile row across the Atlantic Ocean, from the Canary Islands to land at Antigua to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House Charities for families of sick children.
Team Graft consists of Dean Fitzmaurice and Nick Perks from Teesside, and Richard Hornsey and Matthew Pitchforth from Yorkshire, who signed up for the race after "three bottles of red wine" and went on a learn to row course.
Gary caught up with Dean Fitzmaurice after they finished.
