This story will show you the blueprint of the essential drive, discipline, logistics, endurance, and overcoming situations to row solo 900 miles from Pensacola to Key West. The only fear was quitting. The mission is a fundraiser for the Disabled American Veterans. It soon became apparent that bringing awareness to the Veteran issues became more important. An adventure that will go beyond anything you or anyone else could imagine that you could do. We’ll go daily with decisions, destinations, obstacles, and experiences. The rowboat is named Daily Oar Deal to remind Vets that I recognize that they may be struggling with their own daily ordeals as well. We’ll explore the mindset of someone who would row for 100 days. He is a 67-year-old vet himself, who is not some athletic guy, but has the discipline to go on and embrace the suck.
