The J Team?

14 Oct 2010

You've heard of the A Team, well this is the 'J Team'. Have you got what it takes to join Jock's team?

Selecting a crew for the Row to the Pole is a bit like selecting the legendary A Team: they must be capable of taking over a country.

The team must be no less than multi-talented, multi-tasking masters. To give you an idea, so far we have had enquiries from ocean rowers and Everest summiteers.

This is no snow holiday, we’ll be boarding the plane to Resolute in the certain knowledge that we’re on our own and must survive in one of the harshest environments in the world using only what we bring with us.

Rowing is only a small part of the Row to the Pole Expedition, cold weather skills, sea survival, navigation and ski skills are all vitally important.

What I do know is that the crew need to be the best of the best. I know that there are people out there who can fill these roles and help to write history. So if you ‘think you’re hard enough’ apply now!
