From Monterey to Hawaii
The pacific is calling
On January the 16th 2022, “SWISS RAW – Atlantik“ rowed into English Harbour in Antigua, more than a day ahead of the second-placed team. On their Atlantic crossing, they rowed more than 5191km on pure muscle power and became the first winning team of the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge from a landlocked country.
