Overview

A test of endurance, tenacity and the uncanny ability to predict the unknown, as the crew of a small Rowing boat embark on a perilous, man powered journey across the Atlantic Ocean. Racing across five time zones, the 14-strong British and Irish crew of ?La Mondiale? compete around the clock, chasing a daunting world record set by an elite team of French legionnaires over fifteen years ago. Leaving from Gran Canaria off the coast of Africa and rowing for over a month in conditions that quickly descend into a surreal recreation of forced labor, the crew make for the Caribbean state of Barbados and a place in the history books.
