In July 2010
French oceanrower Mathieu
Bonnier
(Bouvet Rames Guyanne 2009) became the
first person (to our knowledge) to row solo across the Baffin Bay. He
started from Qaanaaq, north of Greenland on July 16th and arrived in
Lancaster on July 28th 2010. Now he is proceeding with his expedition
and is
rowing solo along the North-West Passage ( 6500 km ), that links the
Atlantic and the Pacific oceans, north of Canada and Alaska. |

August 2011:
(the
expedition was intended to start in August 2010, but
has been postponed for a
year)
oceanrower
Ralph Tuijn
(NL)
will add more sea miles to his
Atlantic and Pacific crossings by rowing in team with
Pieter Smit
non-stop from
Amsterdam to Svalbard, aka Spitzbergen (the
northernmost inhabited island in the world). The route of 2890km/1796
miles as the crow flies is crossing the northern part of the Atlantic
and ending in the Arctic Ocean, so the working title of the expedition
is: “80 Degrees North Challenge”. It will be the first time that an
ocean rowboat is going that far north (record of
Smurgis is 77˚ 44' N) and
the second time
that it reaches the Arctic ocean. |
