For those who haven't seen this yet:
Brit John Beeden, 53, is one tough buzzard. After previously rowing across the Atlantic in 53 days, he has just completed a 209 day , reported 6100 nm, solo non-stop row from San Francisco on June 1 to Cairns, Australia.
That's a very few days less than 7 months rowing around 15 hrs a day !!
Congratulation , John! You are a seriously determined geterdone guy. Potential rescue issues aside, that is an astounding accomplishment.

But has anyone mentioned you can make that trip by plane in about 17 hrs these days?
