  • Libby and John's final approach to Antigua, political shenanigans and choppy seas.
    In 2018/19 Libby and John rowed the Atlantic Ocean from Portimao to Antigua, the crossing took 91 days. Libby set the record of becoming the youngest female to row the Atlantic in a mixed pair.
    Completed in a pure rowing boat, i.e. no auto pilot, no dagger board, no wind catching design elements, not a blowing boat.

      Thanks Pierre, personally I think it takes a lot more courage to do something like this at 20 than at 50 something, very proud of Libby.

      Hi Gary, I'm hopefully getting a bit better at editing, it's not really my specialty. The original sound quality of some of the clips is a bit dodgy too, wind and thrashing about etc. Hopefully I can improve things on the next trip / video. Thanks for watching.

      There is a small aft cabin, has all the electronics and enough space to grab what sleep you can.

    Hope you remembered your Passport or it’s going to be a low journey home

      We both had our passports but my wife left my new replacement resident card back in Canada, they wouldn't let me board the plane home. I had to fly to the UK, have the card sent there and then fly back to Canada. Life is full of interesting challenges.
