A world-renowned business leader and inspirational speaker Kevin was previously MD of Porsche, BMW and Fairline Boats. He brings a (very!) mature aspect to the team and is vastly experienced at leading complex projects and demanding expeditions. Kevin has walked to the North Pole (twice) and the South Pole as well as climbing some of the world’s highest mountains to raise funds for medical research. Since being part of the world record setting Ocean5 Atlantic crew, Kevin has been determined to repeat the experience, with the goal of setting a new world record for the row across the Pacific. His friendship with Lewis Moody and respect for his Foundation’s fight against brain tumours in young people encouraged Kevin to get on and make the row happen.

With qualifications in conservation biology and medicine, Matt’s experience as a member of the world record setting Ocean5 Atlantic crew means that he knows more about treating a poisonous jellyfish sting than treating asthma. His bedside manner of "umm, you’ll live … probably" is ideally suited to a couple of months rowing the Pacific, where his expedition medical skills will be a key addition to the team. Matt is an Olympic torch bearer who has walked to both the North and South Poles and currently competes in Ironman and Ultra-marathon competitions. His ocean rowing experience and his appetite for endurance sports and multi-day events means he understands just how difficult this undertaking will be.

Adam is a keen adventurer and sports enthusiast, having notably rowed the Atlantic, ran the Marathon des Sables and climbed Stoke Kangri in the Indian Himalayas. He enjoys cross country skiing in the winter, surfing in the summer and watching rugby all year around. 

Tom has previous rowing experience, having crossed the Atlantic with Adam in 2021. He enjoys endurance adventures of multiple disciplines having placed in the top 100 in the Marathon Des Sables and swam from Europe to Asia across the Hellespont.  

I’ve always enjoyed sport, but found my true passion in martial arts, becoming National Champion at 16 and representing England Internationally all over the World in my early 20’s. Despite my proximity to the sea, it’s always Intrigued me. I crave adventure, having spent a year living in the remote Amazon jungle, something that’s not for the faint hearted! Driven a 35yr old three wheeled Reliant Robin from the UK to Mongolia, another questionable decision! Cycled across Europe, put up several first ascent rock climbing routes in Greenland and traversed the deserts of Oman.
