Why we are undertaking such an extreme crossing in turbulent seas.

1) To commemorate the story of the Shetland Bus.

2) To push the limits of what can be achieved in a standard sea kayak.

3) To raise funds for the RNLI and The Make a Wish Foundation.

4) There is now no ferry from UK to Norway!

Make the pain worthwhile and HELP US to HELP THEM.

Our lifeboat crews and beach lifeguards rely on your donations and support to save lives at sea. As an independent charity the RNLI receives no funding from the UK government. Can you help?

Make-A-Wish aims to grant 1,000 wishes per year and to do this we need YOUR help. Even the smallest donation goes a long way and is used to continue our vital work.

Just a quick note: We would like to thank the site hosts, easyhosting.net, for providing more bandwidth free of charge to ensure the site will run throughout the trip. Many thanks guys from Patrick, Olly and Mick.
