The World’s Toughest Row, where unassisted rowing boats cross the Atlantic Ocean from the Canary Islands to Antigua. For a team of four veterans, it was the ultimate test of body and mind, and an opportunity to raise funds and awareness for other vets suffering with mental illness. Then tragedy struck and they were stranded in a life raft waiting to be rescued. This is their story.
