GBOWR confirmation

News hot off the press - the official confirmation is through:


We are pleased to confirm that you have achieved the Guinness World Record for the First team of two to row around British mainland and congratulate you on your achievement.


"Captains Hamish Reid and Nick Dennison (both UK) were the first two-man team to row unsupported around mainland Britain, completing the 2,100-mile (3,380-km) journey after an uninterrupted 50 days and 5 hours at sea. On board their 24-ft (7.3-m) vessel Komale, the two men crossed the finish line on the Solent, Lymington, UK, at 15:02 on 1 July 2010."
