The First and Fastest Team to Row Across the Indian Ocean
Our team is embarking on an extraordinary world-first expedition—aiming to become the first and fastest team to row across the vast and unforgiving Indian Ocean, from Carnarvon, Western Australia, to Mombasa, Kenya.
This continent-to-continent journey will take us across one of the most treacherous and least-rowed oceans on the planet. We are setting out to achieve what has never been done before: a team crossing in record time, setting multiple records in the process.
This journey is more than just an extreme endurance test—it’s about pushing human limits, overcoming obstacles, and proving that with determination and teamwork, anything is possible.

Together, we will navigate over 5,000 nautical miles (more than 8,000 km) of open ocean, battling unpredictable cyclones, powerful currents, towering waves, and relentless heat. Rowing non-stop, unsupported, in 2-hour shifts around the clock, we will face one of the greatest challenges of human endurance.
Beyond the challenge itself, we are here to inspire. Our journey represents resilience, unity, and the courage to achieve extraordinary goals. This record-breaking attempt has earned a nomination from The Explorers Club, recognizing the significance of this expedition in the world of extreme exploration.
This is more than just a rowing expedition. It’s a story of endurance, personal
transformation, and the power of the human spirit. Follow our journey, be part of the adventure, and witness what it takes to cross an ocean—one stroke at a time.

As we row across the vast Indian Ocean, we proudly carry Flag No. [Insert Flag Number], continuing the legacy of pioneers, astronauts, and deep-sea explorers who have come before us. Our expedition is more than just a challenge of physical endurance—it is a mission of exploration, research, and human resilience.

Continue advocating for the designation of new marine protected areas of at least 4,000,000 square kilometers in the Southern Ocean, since 90% of large fish in the oceans are already gone due to overfishing and over 1/3 of commercially fished species are endangered with extinction.
