Not content with cycling the length of Thailand (1,200 miles) and climbing all 282 Munros (in 5 months), my ex 45 Cdo cousin is now planning to row solo across the Atlantic, unsupported for 3,118 miles (going the wrong way, which has never been done before).

He's doing this for the Royal Foundation of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, and two military focussed charities the SBS Association, and Rock2Recovery, who both provide much needed support to UK veterans and their families.

You can read more or follow his adventure here, and please donate if you wish to support:

His weather window is tight for launch between 15 May - 15 June this year to avoid the storm season. COVID is hampering his logistics a little as he won't be able to enter the US from the UK so will have to quarantine in another country for 2 weeks before moving on to the US to quarantine for a further 2 weeks. This is adding time and cost to his endeavour that he can ill afford.

thanks
Paul
