Zara Lachlan

 


97 days at sea…with sharks, whales, near-misses and even a broken finger, 21 year old British Student Zara Lachlan has made history as the first woman to row solo from Europe to South America. Rowing 15 hours a day, her journey from Portugal to French Guyana is a great story of grit, perseverance, and why it’s important to have a supportive team around you. What’s next for Ms. Lachlan? Joining the Army, of course. Congrats to Ms. Lachlan on this fantastic feat!

The World's Toughest Row - Atlantic: History Made!

 

History has been made, and Ananya Prasad is the first woman of color to row solo and unsupported across any ocean! Ananya was competing in The World's Toughest Row-Atlantic and she arrived in Antigua earlier today.

Rowing from La Gomera in the Canary Islands, she made the journey to the Caribbean after:

- 52 days, 5 hours and 44 minutes.

- 2800 nautical miles. In regular land miles, that is 3,222 miles.

 I wish Ms. Prasad a hearty congratulations on a job well done! I look forward to seeing what is in store for her next!
