On the 21st of March 2010 one of South Africa’s top adventurers and conference speakers, Peter van Kets, rowed into English Harbour on the island of Antigua in the Caribbean after spending 76 days alone in a 7 meter rowing boat. His epic 5438 Km unsupported row across the Atlantic was a first for any African and is a story of courage, passion, loneliness, tenacity, amazing team work and the will to win. In 2008 Peter made his name known in the world of extreme adventure by winning the unsupported Woodvale Trans-Atlantic Rowing Race together with friend Bill Godfrey. With this he was awarded the South African Premiers Award and the Eastern Cape Sports Star of the year (2008) Award. He is married to Kim (also an extreme endurance athlete) and they have a daughter Hannah. |
