Robert Idsinga wants to shed 40 pounds. He has a novel plan: He will cross the Atlantic Ocean in a rowboat.

Idsinga figures he will burn 10,000 calories a day, rowing two hours on and two hours off around the clock, hopefully in just under three months, over the course of this 5,500-kilometre crossing (that's 2,900 nautical miles) from the Canary Islands to Antigua. That should just about do it for Idsinga's dietary goal..........More

We had a great interview with Bill Brownstein from the Gazette! He's a super nice guy and absolutely funny. It's funny that the sponsors that out of all the sponsors that we have signed up, everyone has heard about the folie a deux winery.  Bill absolutely loves the Menage a Trois wines and luckily Robert had brought one for him!

On a side note: We all think that Bill looks like Rob's richer twin brother. I think it's the hair.
