GONE FISHIN
Rowing the Atlantic
THE CHALLENGE
Aptly named as "The Worlds Toughest Row", the team will cross the Atlantic Ocean in December 2025 by rowing boat, unassisted, in attempt to win the men's pairs race
OUR MISSION
Support the Blue Marine Foundation in protecting over 4 million square kilometers of ocean
THE ROW
3,000 miles across the Atlantic from La Gomera to Antigua. Huge waves, extreme temperatures, cramped quarters, and relentless rowing shifts. It will take courage, determination and a sense of humour to get there.
Gone Fishin has a simple aim - to raise £250,000+ for the Blue Marine Foundation and protect the ocean from unsustainable fishing practices.
THE CREW
Fraser and Kirill met while working at Augusta & Co, a business supporting the growth of the renewable energy sector. Both are avid scuba divers and fishermen, and have seen first-hand the damage of overfishing and marine pollution to our oceans.
When he's not in the office, Fraser runs ultramarathons and competes in Ironman triathlons around the world.
Kirill is a long distance swimmer, former competitive water-polo player and also a father to three.
​
Both are hugely excited to bring you on this journey with them.
