The field departed Victoria at noon Thursday with moderate SW winds helping all participants, especially the sailboats. Taking advantage of his strategy to sleep in the boat to save camp set up time, Dameon put in a late day, rowing until an hour and a half past sunset to lay up inside Walker Hook on Salt Spring Island. This 45 mile day seems like a big one, but Team Of One has the long range experience to pace himself. While another solo rower and a kayaker went another 5 to 10 miles yesterday, it will be interesting to see if that pace can be maintained.
After going until 11 pm, how early can our Belfast rower get moving today?
