Our Story
"Life or death was ultimately determined by a few inches and series of extraodinary decisions"
/
001
Through fire and water
Through fire and water
Chris and Max were hit by a devastating rogue wave during a race to row 3000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean in 2017. What followed - amidst the worst conditions in a decade - is a battle to survive widely regarded as one of the most perilous sequence of events in the history of ocean racing. After a capsize, fire and almost fatal rescue attempt in an Atlantic storm, the difference between life and death was ultimately determined by a few inches and a series of extraordinary decisions.
