Ep. 2 | Setting Off & Fixing Disaster | Not Alone | Woodvale Challenge Transatlantic Solo Row 2010

The first crossing had been a journey into the unknown, and that in itself is an enormous X factor. But in spending 50 days in a rowing boat and completing one race, I had learnt many lessons. What could I have done differently? How might I do it better? These were the questions going through my mind early one morning in April 2008, about three months after stepping onto the pier in English Harbour and promising Kim I would never put her through something like that again. As I lay in bed reliving the Gquma crossing while tossing and turning and unable to get back to sleep, it dawned on me that the agony of the experience had miraculously faded away and done the whole thing again was seeming like rather a good idea… The really clever part of my plan was that this time I should do it on my own. If things went well, I figured, I had every chance of winning the solo class.
