Three weeks back on board M/Y Titania.
Engine room sessions at 42°C.
Full engine noise. No fresh air.
Not glamorous — but it’s the reality of working on a superyacht.
And honestly… I love being back in this hot box getting the work done.
Great mental prep for the World’s Toughest Row 🌊🔥

A little thing that’s a big thing … the rowing seat itself, pretty amazing engineering by @tezsteinberg and part of Moderation that’s been critical for me to learn from the ground up. Disassembled and reassembled today as part of final launch prep. Loads more efficient than Bootcamp 1 when I did it for the first time, but certainly will be a lot more challenging out at sea. Glad to knock out this Tez task / test today ✌🏻 #oceanrowing #LFR
When you’re 1,000 miles from land with no support vessel, the work you did in the garage and on the group calls are the work that keeps you safe.
Our boat, the Spitfire, won’t prep herself, and the Pacific won’t wait for anyone who isn’t ready!
Cheers to being *almost* ready for launch in June 2026.

Netherlands training camp day 1!
We haven't seen each other or our boat for almost a year.
Super fun day hanging out with the crew, exploring our boat again, and prepping for a big week ahead!

Straight into it! 🔥 #surfboats
Did you know what part of the boat this would be?
Excited to partner with @lightspeedrigging who is a local company based in Annapolis, MD. We will have their LS Carbon for the shrouds and forestay, and the LS Photon for the running back stays.
Can’t wait to unbox this rigging soon!

Think you know rowing races? 🚣
Reckon they’re all the same?
Think again.
We sat down with @rowmads for a brief tutorial on just why rowing around this amazing island 🇬🇧 is so unique.
It’s more than endurance- it’s constant calculation.
🦭Unpredictable tides and shifting currents from four different seas requires razor- sharp navigation.
🦭Crafty captaining and sharp, reactive crew needed to avoid those pesky shipping lanes.
🦭Be prepared to endure the glorious British 🇬🇧 weather 🌦️ where we enjoy four seasons in one day.
🦭The ever-tempting sight of the coastline, with her Sirens beckoning you to dock for a pint 🍺 and 🍔 🍟 requires will of iron.
🦭Choose your crew wisely. Enjoy cosy accommodation with living/kitchen/dining/sleeping rooms neatly combined in a spacious 20’ x 30’ cabin.
🦭Of course this means looking the part , and wearing the right kit is CRITICAL 🦭 😉 We think they look pretty good, but what do you think?
