This photo was taken 141 days ago, moments before Brendon stepped onto his board and paddled out of Torbay. This evening, 4000km and 141 days later he will be paddling into the bay and completing his circumnavigation of mainland Britain.

The LONG ROW… It’s a simple concept.
Leave Torquay and turn right.
Then keep going… around the entire coastline of Britain and Ireland.
Solo
4000km
Small coastal rowing boat
Massive purpose
To shine a light on water safety and drowning prevention through a world first adventure that will push mind, body and spirit to the limit.
The ocean doesn’t care who you are. Preparation matters. Knowledge matters. Education saves lives.
27th July 2026. Torre Abbey Sands.
The adventure begins.
