About Atlantic Assault
Atlantic Assault Row 2024 is a charitable row dedicated to raising funds for the Royal Marines Charity. In December 2024, Serving and Veteran Royal Marines will embark on a challenging row across the Atlantic Ocean to raise awareness and support for this important cause. Our team is passionate about supporting our brave servicemen and women who have made sacrifices for our country. Join us in our mission to make a difference and support our cause.
The Challenge
Rowing across the Atlantic is a monumental feat, and Atlantic Assault is prepared to confront a series of formidable challenges head-on. From the relentless physical demands of rowing for weeks on end to the mental fortitude required to cope with isolation, the team will push their limits. They'll battle unpredictable weather, including scorching sun and raging storms, and navigate through monstrous waves that can reach towering heights all whilst rowing in shifts of 2 hours rowing and 2 hours sleeping all whilst.
Why the Atlantic?
The Atlantic Ocean represents the ultimate test of endurance, courage, and commitment. It's a relentless force of nature that mirrors the unwavering dedication of our team, as we row across its vast expanse to support the Royal Marines Charity. Our journey across the Atlantic is a symbolic tribute to the challenges faced by those who serve, and a testament to the power of teamwork and determination.
