 You may or may not have heard of Polish kayaker Aleksander Doba. Aleksander in 2010 decided he would cross the Atlantic at it's narrowest point, from Senegal to Brazil. He did so in 99 days.
In 2013-14, Aleksander and his kayak dubbed with the name "Olo" took the seas once again crossing the Atlantic now at its furthest point, from Lisbon, Portugal to Florida. The record breaking adventure took 167 days at seas across 5,400 miles and did I mention he did it at the age of 67. If looking for inspiration this Spring, look no further as Kayakers are continually pushing the boundaries and heading into unchanted territories. Also, don't be alarmed if you see KansasKayaking.com taking on a facelift. New season, new look, coming soon.
