What is the Anglo American Boat Race?
How much would you pay NOT
to row for 2010 miles, non-stop stop for 5 weeks, around the clock, through wind, rain, storms.... and possibly a little bit of sun? How much?....

The Anglo American Challenge is a non-stop row circumnavigation of
Great Britain (GB) that will see teams race for the ultimate accolade, First Place and possibly a new World Record
The total distance is
around 2010 miles, although in reality it will be greater, completed in June 2010 dependent upon the weather conditions.
