WHAM Special Event – A talk from Ian Rivers about his epic Atlantic crossing in 2021.
Venue: The Falcon Hotel, Bromyard, HR7 4BT
Ian Rivers made an unsupported Atlantic crossing in 2021 rowing single handed and without GPS navigation aids, relying on only a sextant as the main form of navigation. Nobody had previously attempted such a feat. Ian will be here in person to tell us about his incredible adventure.
