We're team 'Mixed Emoceans' and we are entrants in the 2023 GB Row Challenge!Starting in June 2023 we will be:-
Rowing the entire circumference of mainland Britain, in one continuous and unsupported effort...
- ~2000 miles of rowing.
- Up to 2 months at sea.
- 2 hours rowing/2 hours rest, 24 hours per day.Start: Tower Bridge, LondonEnd: Tower Bridge, London"GB Row is the ultimate rowing challenge. Complex tides and very changeable British weather mean good navigation skills are required, as well as the tactical ability to make the most of weather and sea conditions, which can be as important as a team’s strength, stamina and endurance."

We are using this gruelling challenge as a means to raise awareness and money for the Marine Conservation Society (MCS).As seafarers, the seas have been our home and office for many years and we are all too aware of their importance and their fragility. Therefore, there could be no better beneficiary of such an event.
Our lives and future depend on the planet having clean and healthy oceans, please share and give anything you can to help this amazing charity continue its work studying, monitoring and restoring our marine environments. More information about their work can be found here: www.mcsuk.org
Every penny donated goes directly to MCS. Costs of the challenge will be covered by corporate sponsorship, private donors and from our own pockets.
