North Atlantic Challenge 2011 presented by Silicon Mechanics and Intel Corporation!
WAVE will attempt to row across the North Atlantic Ocean, from USA to Europe, aiming for England. He'll start in Summer 2011, in his custom, high-tech, hand-made 24 foot ocean row boat.
The north Atlantic W-E crossing is considered one of the most challenging of ocean rows. In fact, the only other American to try this route solo perished.
Wave's expeditions differ greatly from other rowing expeditions. Wave's primary goal is education and research. His Science Education Adventure Program reaches hundreds of thousands of students around the world. Wave is partnered with groups that will benefit from this expedition for years to come.
Philosophy: It's not just one man rowing across an ocean, it's hundreds or thousands of people rowing across an ocean. It's a cooperative effort, that helps push the boundaries and limits, giving real-life examples to others in what they too can possibly achieve.
As sponsors, media, educationists, and other interested people get involved, so can you. Whether you want to work on WAVE's expedition or another, take action, you too can make a difference. If you'd like to get involved with Ocean Row Solo,contact us here.
