Activate yourself to have the energy to fulfill your dreams! Be part of this breathtaking challenge! Let our passion for rowing inspire your daily trainings, let us make your days more powerful and your life more complete!



# Rowing across the ocean?

Huh, it sounds a bit insane, isn’t it? Well, we assure you, it isn’t. It is challenging though, that’s why we need your support. We are passionate rowers, with “never give up” attitude.

    





# What’s the purpose here, guys?

We wish to engage you in our global campaign for transforming people’s habits. In other words, we would like to build an active community, where everyone does their part for the environment by taking the first step and encouraging other people to do so. And in the meantime, train with us, follow us while we cross the Ocean, and enjoy being part of this community.


Don’t worry! We won’t pull the “
environmental card” to provide a justification for our campaign. We respect your time more. But we know the math: the more people we can reach, the strongest community we can build. We are preparing loads of interesting and fun stuff while we are crossing. This way, we can leverage the expedition’s global marketing strength to reach as many people as possible to build an active and powerful community.


As pioneers of community Trans-Atlantic rowing, we are rowing with you! We share every single strike of the oar, every mile we take with you via photos, videos and all kind of updates and games. In other words, we are the engine and you are the fuel, so we will row across the North Atlantic together while we are supporting a good cause and still having fun!


FOR OUR CHILDREN. FOR OURSELVES. FOR EARTH.

This is our way. What's yours? Join us, and find out!



# What have we achieved so far?

We reached an important milestone with SAMSON being floated and water tests are in progress.


With almost 4 years of hard work:

  • we completed the one-of-a-kind ocean rowing boat,
  • we prepared physically and mentally for the challenge,
  • we developed our ground Team to support the event,
  • we reached out to the media for global coverage,
  • we compiled all checklists and identified all items required for a successful mission.



# Why do we need this money?

Rowing across the North-Atlantic, we have to face very volatile and unpredictable weather and high traffic of commercial vessels in addition to all the other difficulties what 80 days on open Ocean may hold for us. To successfully accomplish the challenge, we need to have well selected professional equipment and food onboard, taking also the limited space and weight constrains into account.



Every penny you help us with will be spent for these goals! No “sideways”, 100% transparency. Since we have already completed the boat, you are supporting a challenge with solid foundation!



Oh, you are one of those men of details guys who want to know everything about all the equipment/services we need to acquire with your support to break the Guinness Record? (YES, we will. I forgot to mention? Sorry…)


So here they are, Just for You:



# What happens if we don't reach the fundraising goal?
 
Well, nothing lost! We will use every penny you donated the most efficient way!

Let's see how powerful your contribution is:

We are absolutely committed to depart under all circumstances. So the more you can help, the better our chances are. Clear and sound.



# Wonder, what the heck can happen during 80 days?

Being the
pioneers of Community Trans-Atlantic Rowing, you can follow our life onboard, almost live broadcasting. So, better stay tuned!


Whales, floating containers, storms and massive house-sized ships are special kind of excitement, especially when we are trying to avoid collision with them. All routine tasks natural on ground, turn funny and even embarrassing in such a small living space… (Just think about it!)


Fixed cameras installed all over the boat, even in the cabins! 1 minute interval photos and daily HD video updates bring you right onboard with us. The drone unit we carry will provide spectacular aerial footage we share with you.


Massive amount of information, isn’t it? Presenting it in an attractive yet easy to use form is a challenge. This is why we developing a top-notch website. Do you want a sneak preview?

     

     

We row with you, so we talk to you! You can communicate with us directly: questions, thoughts, jokes (below and above the line), all are welcome as they keep us going. There are plenty of ways to “travel with us onboard” or you want to receive a call from us, maybe you want to smile into the onboard cameras for a day? Just check out the amazing rewards!



# Do you believe you can beat us?

We are happy to take the challenge! We are rowing, you are doing your daily trainings. Then we will bring all your different types of activities to a common denominator to convert them to rowing miles and finally we apply the "weather factor" (based on the actual weather we experience at the open ocean).  

     

And here we are… You are racing against us and other attendants!

We provide you cool ways to track your actual position, and possibility to compare your results with a specific person or within a selected group of people. You can even communicate with us or any other attendants.

Should start training harder mate, 
the challenge soon begins!! :-)
