The Life of a Serial Adventurer

Three Brothers in a Boat

Three Scottish brothers, restless for adventure, decided almost on a whim to row across the Atlantic Ocean. They hadn't even set down their oars before agreeing to take on the Pacific next. What followed was 9,000 miles of open water and 139 unbroken days at sea -- an experience so raw and transformative they wrote a book about it in their book, "Three Brothers in a Boat." In this episode, they share what it really takes to row an ocean, and what they learned about family, endurance, and taking a daring to leap.
