Battling onward to Mauritius, Lone among the fl ying fi shes, Albatrosses, giant whales, Turning turtle in the gales. To hell with Health and Safety rules, She’s in tune with tuna schools. She’ll dance, while others dance in bars, With pilot fi sh and Pilot Stars. I have not the faintest notion How to brave the Indian Ocean In anything that keeps afl oat, Let alone a rowing boat. But Sarah takes it in her stride, And going with her, for the ride, A book, or audio CD Read by Lalla and by me. To speed her trip to its conclusion We’re reading her The God Delusion! So fl y the fl ags, with sirens hootin’, And raise a glass to Sarah Outen.

Reading this book you will warm to her too. She is honest, open, courageous and inspiring, and taking you on her journey with her she’ll have you holding your breath one minute, and then laughing out loud the next. Understanding the oceans I can just begin to comprehend what she’s been through at sea, but her story on land is equally compelling. She has written this book wonderfully and has a contagious love for life which jumps right out of the pages at you! Sarah – I can’t wait for your next book!

Boldness has genius, power and magic in it’ GOETHE It all started while I was at Oxford. Room 24, Main Building, St Hugh’s College, December 2005. I was sitting at my desk chewing a pen, surrounded by open textbooks and piles of notes. I was trying, quite unsuccessfully, to write a proposal to study basking sharks in Scotland that summer. My degree was biology, so that wasn’t unusual and neither was my procrastination; it was a rowing day after all and I was hungry for some action after too many hours indoors. I typed distractedly at my laptop, clock-watching and already thinking about my pre-training snack: a banana, a malt loaf, a Mars bar or all three? For the umpteenth time that day I opened up my inbox and read through the already- read emails, taking as much time as I possibly could. While 15 A Dip in the Ocean_INSIDES.indd 15 17/12/2010 10:41:05 A DIP IN THE OCEAN I was reading a new one arrived with a ping. Result; at least another two minutes of beautiful time-wasting lay ahead. I paused. And then I smiled as I read the subject line: ‘Ocean Rowing Races’. This was going to be more than two minutes’ grace from the proposal; it was easily the most exciting email I had ever received. I clicked and read an advert for a rowing race across the Atlantic. I had only ever rowed on the Isis and, whilst I had sailed a bit, I had never crossed an ocean. An ocean! Across a whole ocean in a rowing boat? I was speechless. I put my feet up on my desk and leant back on my chair, rocking on the two back legs in exactly the way you’re always told not to as a child, thinking and spinning the pen in my fi ngers. I was hooked by the idea of it; oceans and rowing were two of my favourite words and I was sure that if I put the two together they would make an incredible adventure. I had always wanted to see what it was like to make a big journey in the wild under my own steam, living and breathing the raw power of the elements, at one with nature. With no specifi c plans for life after graduation in a year’s time, I decided there and then that I would start with an ocean row. I wasn’t sure which ocean, or when, or how, or who with, and I don’t know why I was so sure of myself but I knew that I would do it. In 2009 I did it, rowing solo across the Indian Ocean from Australia to Mauritius. It was a journey of more than just an ocean and it was far more than a rowing trip. It made me and it has shown me all the

  • January 2013 – Volume Nineteen, Number One GREAT AFRICAN
    January 2013 – Volume Nineteen, Number One EXPEDITION NEWS, now in its 19th year, is the monthly review of significant expeditions, research projects and newsworthy adventures. It is distributed online to media representatives, corporate sponsors, educators, research librarians, explorers, environmentalists, and outdoor enthusiasts. This forum on exploration covers projects that stimulate, motivate and educate. GREAT AFRICAN EXPEDITION ENTERS PHASE TWO Sir Samuel White Baker’s great great grandson David Baker and British filmmaker Jonathan Maguire will join African explorer and anthropologist Julian Monroe Fisher for phase two of The RailRiders 2012-2016 Great African Expedition. Leaving this month, the team will retrace the 1860’s expeditionary route of Sir Samuel White Baker and his wife Lady Florence from Juba throughout South Sudan and Uganda. In February 2012, Julian Monroe Fisher announced an ambitious five-year - nine expedition ethnographical research project deep in the heart of Africa. The objectives of the ongoing project are to compare the 19th century Ethnographic documentation of the African tribal kingdoms gathered during the expeditions of the Victorian age explorers with the realities of 21st century Africa. The project will retrace the African expeditionary routes of the famed Victorian explorers to include Baker, Speke, Grant, Burton, de Brazza, Wissman, Baumann, Park, Cameron, Stanley and Livingstone. By researching the personal letters, diaries and papers from the Victorians during and after their expeditions that are now scattered globally in private collections and museums, Fisher hopes to develop insight into the African cultures that the explorers encountered. They hope to shed light on what changes occurred as a result of colonization and post colonization in some of the most remote corners of Africa.

By 2013, the Coxless Crew was formed with aspirations to complete the first four-person team expedition from America to Australia. Over the next two years, funds were raised, a custom-made pink ocean row boat (lovingly named Doris) was built, and several of the original team members had dropped out of the project to be replaced with ambitious new faces ready for the challenge. After years of planning, as well as months of physical and mental preparation, the Coxless crew set off from San Francisco in April of 2015, bound for Hawaii, the first checkpoint on their three-legged journey across the Pacific. With LOSING SIGHT OF SHORE, Emmy-winning director Sarah Moshman documents their trying and triumphant expedition, occasionally catching up with the crew at their scheduled checkpoints, while mostly allowing the team to film their own experiences with a stock of weather resistant GoPros along their journey. The result is part emotionally charged video journal, part visually stunning wilderness doc. We witness the team ride waves of heart-wrenching, awe-inspiring challenges, from dangerous storms, extreme heat, and utter boredom to power outages and lack of food. In addition, they must battle the mental strain of unending repetition and the physical abuse of constantly rowing and sleeping only one or two hours at a time.
