Team Northern Atlantic 2011

In 1896 two clam fishermen, Harbo and Samuelson, rowed the Northern Atlantic Ocean from New York City to the Isles of Scilly in the UK. Harbo and Samuelson still hold the record for the fastest ever ocean rowing pairs boat to row from New York City to Bishop Rock Lighthouse in the Isles of Scilly. We hope to become the first ever modern day ocean rowing pair to make this same crossing – unsupported and entirely self-sufficient – in less than 55 days. Moreover, we plan to row the first ever multihull ocean rowing boat across the Northern Atlantic Ocean, West to East.
