Grant Rawlinson - “Crossing The Bay of Bengal”

In February and March 2023, adventurers Grant ‘Axe’ Rawlinson and Luke Richmond set off from Phuket to make an attempt to cross the Bay of Bengal completely by human power. Known as the world’s largest bay, the Bay of Bengal stretches over 2000km across, is bounded by Sri Lanka, India, Myanmar, Thailand and Indonesia and is home to the world's most remote tribe.  In their 6m long, experimental pedal powered boat named 'Little Donkey', Luke and Axe  endured 23 days and nights at sea, in brutal living conditions which pushed them to their limits both mentally and physically. This is their story.  

Speaker: 

Grant ‘Axe’ Rawlinson is a human powered explorer and teach decision making who has walked across countries, cycled across continents, rowed across many seas and climbed many of the world's tallest mountains. He has made over 50 expeditions across the globe in pursuit of his life purpose, to make bold unique journeys using only human power using as little support as practically possible.
