Pacific Row 2026 - Race Winners
Andrew Breen and I won the World’s Toughest Row Pacific 2026, completing the 2,800 mile crossing from Monterey, California, to Hanalei Bay, Hawaii. We finished in 35 days, 8 hours and 25 minutes, setting a new world record as the fastest pair ever to row the Mid-Pacific. We also became the first team in the event’s history to lift two trophies, and I became the first woman to have her name engraved on the overall winner’s trophy, something I’m incredibly proud of.

The race that could have been the beginning or the end of a career in offshore sailing and ocean adventure.
