Kiwi grant "axe" rawlinson to row tasman solo

Kiwi Grant ‘Axe’ Rawlinson will start the final leg of his 4500km expedition, rowing the Tasman Australia to New Zealand in October. The journey to date included a two man row from Singapore down through the Indonesian Archipalego to Darwin, a cycle the length of Australia and now with the row to go to make home, New Zealand. Grant originally planned to row with a partner on the Tasman crossing, however after spending a great deal of time alone during his cycle leg across the Australian continent, he found the experience and challenge to be richer and more fulfilling when he was alone. We wish his well on his journey.
