Hi I am looking for team members (or to join a team) to row 3000 miles across the Atlantic as part of the Talisker Whiskey Challenge. In reality I think it will have to be with a view to Christmas 2025. I’m looking for people to help in the whole process of funding raising, training, securing a boat etc
Race Facts
Each team will row in excess of 1.5 million oar strokes during a race
At its deepest, the Atlantic Ocean is 8.5km deep
The waves that rowers can experience can measure up to 20ft high
Each rower is expected to use 800 sheets of toilet paper during their crossing
Rowers burn in excess of 5,000 calories per day
The average rower looses around 8kg during a crossing
A little about me:
I’m Pete, 44, father of one, living just west of London. I’m practical & determined, fiercely loyal but overall pretty laid back with a smile on my face. I’ve always been into adventures & this is one I am have been really keen to undertake for sometime. I’d say my strongest skill is just getting things done.
I don’t have a specific idea of a perfect team; we can be any gender or age. I think the main thing is we get on, challenge & support each other & enjoy the challenge for what it is.
If this is something that sounds like it would be of interest then drop me a line and lets catch up!
Pete
