With only 85nm and ~24hrs left in the race, I’d like to take a moment to thank the team’s sponsors once again.
It takes an incredible amount of support, coordination, and funding to get to the start line.
The boys would not be here without you! So thanks to all the sponsors that supported them along the way. Your commitment to the team is truly truly appreciated.
Final stretch! 👏

Here’s a little belated Happy New Year! 🎉🥂
The team celebrated NYE by taking a 20 minute break from rowing and enjoying a single sun downer before getting back on the oars and continuing the slog. 😂😬
The good news is they’re now past the halfway mark - just over 1200 nautical miles to go!
KEEP IT UP GUYS!

Merry Christmas from these beaut mugs! 🥰🎄🥂
They’re sending all their love from the middle of the ocean. Certainly won’t be forgetting this Christmas any time soon 😅.
Thanks for the continued support from all! The boys are working hard and continuing to climb the leaderboard. Over 1000 miles down now - 5th place and climbing! 🥳🥳🥳
Keep sleighing it boys!! 😉 (I’ll see myself out)

The sun has risen on day 7! 🌅
The boys have settled into a steady routine (spot Bellos in the background 😂) and have been kind enough to share a few key observations from their first week on the ocean:
1. It’s very big (👏 very astute gentlemen)
2. Dolphins do not come when called (this is a real shame to learn ☹️)
3. There is no plastic in the ocean - it’s a left wing conspiracy (next row will have to be through the great pacific garbage patch then 😬)
3. Throwing bags of seekakke is remarkably satisfying (🧐 no comment)
4. Our superpowers of choice would all be different (conversations clearly getting very deep 😂)
5. Would you rather is a great morale game (who knew!🥳)
To keep the boys entertained, if everyone could please comment below their favourite “would you rather”, we’ll pass it along. Will let you know which sparks the most debate! (Nothing too rogue please boys and girls…)

Before she gets her new coat with all our amazing sponsors on we have given her a good scrub! Keeping the hull clean and polished will help us move faster through the Atlantic.
