Taking part in the World’s Toughest Row requires significant upfront investment before a single mile is rowed. These costs ensure the race is run safely, to the highest standards and that we are properly prepared for the Atlantic Ocean. Every euro raised helps move us one step closer to the start line in La Gomera.
Scroll further down to see examples of what your contributions could go towards.
Funds raised through this page will go directly towards:
• Race entry fees and official charges
• Ocean rowing boat costs
• Safety equipment (life rafts, communications, tracking, emergency systems)
• Training and preparation
• Shipping the boat and equipment to and from the race
• Food, nutrition and supplies for the crossing
This fundraiser is not for personal profit. All funds are used solely for campaign expenses.
Our separate fundraiser for the RNLI is where charitable donations should go.
We truly appreciate anyone who chooses to support us — whether through donating, sharing, sponsoring or simply following our journey. Without this support, the challenge simply wouldn’t be possible.
Thank you for helping us turn an ambitious idea into a reality.
