In this video, I share my 3,000 mile row across the Atlantic Ocean.
I took part in the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge 2018.
If you have any questions about the row, please add them to the comments box and I will do my best to answer them.

Thank you for all the lovely comments about this 🙏🏼 Here are some answers to common questions and comments below: 1. BUCKETS We had 3 😉 2. SEASICKNESS Fortunately, I do not suffer from seasickness. Neither did Ros. But Kate and Kirsty did quite badly, despite taking medication. They still showed up for each rowing shift and gave it their all. Major respect to them 🙌🏼 3. STAYING ON COURSE We had an autopilot (sometimes known as an autotiller) which steers the boat and keeps it on course. It's very handy but also very unreliable as stops working often. We would keep our eyes transfixed on the compass and bearing screen on deck to ensure we were always heading in the right direction. 4. CAPSIZING The boats are made to self-right if they capsize. They flip up the right way in a matter of seconds. Fortunately, we never experienced it. 5. WIND & CURRENTS The wind and ocean currents are in favour of this crossing some of the time. Saying that we still had to row in order to make good progress. A boat left to drift would take around 120 days to land west of its start pointing - whether that be Antigua, or crashing into Guadeloupe or a similar island. I write this as some have suggested that the rowing aspect of this challenge is negligible. 6. PERIODS They still happened. We just got on with it. It was no worse than poo-ing in a bucket. PMT didn't exist because we were focused on other things. 7. FRIENDSHIP We remained friends after the challenge, however, I do not see them much as we live far away. Me and one other ended up working for the race afterward which was pretty cool. If you have any other questions please ask them in the comments and I’ll do my best to answer them 👍

Wow... I have so many questions in my head 😳 Like: (1) You've been underway for a significant amount of time, there was very little space to rest and everybody had to do their part. What happened, if any one of you got a little sick (did this not occur at all?) or ran into an injury (like strong shoulder pain for a few days or such)? (2) You mentioned really high waves. How would laying in the cabinet work (intending to sleep), if the boat was rocking that much (and possibly throwing you from side to side)? (3) The skin on my hands is quite sensitive and I wonder: How did you cope with your hands (and bottoms) getting injured? (4) Sorry for going for a cliche, but I wonder: Would there have been significant impacts, when the one or the other team member had their time of the month? (As a male I'm in awe of your team's mindset generally and wonder, how one could keep up the fighting spirit against all other kinds of moods coming up.) Or was it just irrelevant because of the competitive effort? Sorry if my questions are asking for so many details 😅

The first two men to row across the Atlantic left from New Jersey in a modified lifeboat. Somewhere along the way a ship spotted the “Survivors” and stopped and picked them up! They protested but the Captain thought they were crazy from thirst. It took hours to convince him to let them go. The ship was going back to USA so they lost that time snd had to re row the distance.

When you were talking about the headwind and how you felt demotivated because you had only gone 4 miles even with all of the effort you put in, but then you realized that those that gave up lost 10 miles, effectively giving you a net of 14 miles, and then you said "it doesn't matter how slow you go as long as you're moving forward and making progress" I started to tear up. It's so hard sometimes to see one's own progress when you only compare it to yourself, but when you zoom out and see how far you've gone in comparison to those that give up, it can make a world of a difference

It's easy to miss the forest for the trees. You're right. I think it's down to how intangible it is. It's harder to notice positive changes like that than negative ones. And our brains evolutionarily are built to remember negative events more clearly than positive ones. It's better from a survival perspective to remember something that makes you feel bad. But as long as we're aware of it, and vigilant about being aware of it, we can get around it.

That would be on my list of hardest things you can possibly do as a human being, up there with being an astronaut or walking across a desert with minimal supplies and the people like these women for example that can endure crazy circumstances and as she said “just get on with it” need to be celebrated.

I lost two relatives, changed jobs, moved house, my cats died, all in a very close period. On top of that, working throughout Covid while trying to find alternative ways of delivering services, and dealing with the high number of funerals without being able to do the human contact that usually helps was very hard.

@@Mohamed-sh8fx I didn't have to find God -- he found me at 5 years old and captured my heart again at 26, leading me to serve him with my life. The Lord Jesus Christ is THE Way, the Truth, and the Light, no-one comes to the Father except through him. All other pretenders stand condemned; he alone has risen from the dead, he alone can grant life from death for others who believe in him and his resurrection. Many, many Muslims have discovered this truth, some at the cost of their lives for their understanding of this truth. Don't leave such things to 65 -- what if you die at 64 and are judged? What if you die at 25? Are you in the book of life that Jesus controls? If so, what makes you think so? What your parents believed can't help you; you will stand before the King of all mankind to give an account of your own life, not theirs. These are the questions to ask as a youngster, not just as an elder set in their ways; again, for many that's simply too late. P.S. I am 50 lbs lighter than at 65 and I only just turned 66. I am fighting hard to discharge my God-given duties in this phase of life, to be as fully healthy and energetic as I can be by my own efforts and believe God for the power to do so, which he provides. This video greatly encouraged me in this effort. To finish the race, to receive a "well done, my good and faithful servant!" from my teacher and Lord. And no-one has to die for it; all aspects voluntary. Love wins.

@@Mohamed-sh8fx Go your way, old son. The ramblings of your desert "prophet", used by him to raise up an army to destroy armies of mostly fake "christians" are of little interest to me except as a lifelong student of cults (you know you belong to a cult, right, based on old Arab moon-god myths, heavily salted with misunderstood or false RC teaching; right?) Besides, a) I've read all your Qur'an, including latest research into why they changed 'raisins' into 'virgins' when speaking of heavenly rewards -- either way a disgusting concept in spiritual terms -- and, b) your supposed angel 'Gabriel' (a slanderous attack by the Roman Catholic trained Mohammed on the real Gabriel, though perhaps he met a lying demon), tells a COMPLETELY different story from the actually inspired scriptures' Gabriel does, one that does NOT agree with millennia of recorded prophecy from the one true God, unlike Jesus and his teachings. (Much of the Surahs contain badly rephrased teachings from the New Testament; repeating them badly over 500 years after Jesus' teachings were recorded is NO proof of inspiration; quite the opposite.) I sat down on a British train while visiting England about 20 years ago facing a Muslim scholar. I had been delayed by hours to be forced into this particular train. The Holy Spirit said, "Sit in front of this man and listen to what he tells you." So I did. He travelled England teaching the highest leaders, the teacher said. He was very surprised that I, a by-faith Christian minister, should show such interest in his beliefs, and he talked increasingly freely and excitedly for the whole journey (I in no way doubt his sincerity, nor his deep desire to serve a God he did not yet know). MARK THIS: everything he told me about the coming times and the rise of the returning Son of God as judge, introduced by their great prophet ("Oh, yes, we believe in Jesus as returning judge, though it was Simon who was crucified while Jesus ran away [an antichrist statement], we just don't talk about it openly!"), all he said about how the Muslims and Hindus would react ("Buddhists? Oh, they're just another form of Hinduism"!), matched EXACTLY what the scriptures state about the coming False Prophet and Antichrist. EXACTLY. I say again, you belong to a cult and my interest in humouring you further is now exhausted. This is my comment; write your propaganda in your own comment.

This was a immensely strong feat done by the whole lot. Sharing the same corner with 3 others for +40 days at sea, is no small task. Humans usually can work it out though, since its certainly no place to hold a long grudge. It gets you nowhere. Yeah, you'll fall off. Everyone will fall off moodwise when you exhaust everything like in this feat. But someone or something will usually lure us towards a better mood. Pain and suffering can be kinked with i.e. a good laugh.

Wow I'm so proud of you 4. I hiked the Annapurna trail with only my backpack and after going over the pass, the feeling of accomplishment was amazing. I too had days I wanted to give up and I felt cold and exhausted but I lost 7 kilos and felt so fit after that walk. The pictures in my memory if the incredible scenery on the journey will forever be in my mind. Everyone needs to do something , in their lifetime, that stretches their boundaries on a primitive level 😍👍

In 2011, we were on the cruise ship Crystal Serenity crossing from Lisbon to Miami. One morning, we woke up to the news that the ship had picked up two rowers in the night whose boat had capsized. One rower was just ending his shift and going into the covered area of the boat and that's when the boat got hit by a large wave and capsized. Luckily, it was still a bit light out and the two rowers took it in turn to get the dingy out of the overturned boat. It took them 45 minutes because they were so tired. Once they inflated their dinghy, the little beacon in the dinghy went off because it touched sea water (as it was supposed to do). That sent off a distress signal and British Coast Guard picked up the signal and radioed our ship since we were the closest. It took us 4 hours to get to them. Since they had lost all their communications equipment, they had no way of knowing we were there to rescue them. They sat in their little dinghy and saw this big ship coming at them and hoped the ship had seen them. Finally, the Norwegian captain sailed around them because of the high waves so they'd be on the leeward side of the ship and they were brought aboard. Needless to say they were the stars of the ship and we dropped them off in St. Martin. I'm sure they would have done better in a boat like yours.
