West Coast Radio welcomes a true waterman, Jordan Hanssen to the program. Jordan has rowed across the ocean a number of times, but for the purposes of this interview we’ll focus on two of those ocean crossing odysseys. The first, when Jordan along with his 3 other teammates, broke a Guinness world record rowing from New York to England while literally starving. The second, an almost completed row from Africa to Miami, where Jordan and his team ended up on Dateline NBC. Many of the stories in this interview can be examined in detail by reading Jordan’s Book; 'Rowing Into the Son: Four Young Men Crossing the North Atlantic' and also by watching Dateline NBC's special on Jordan's attempted row from Africa to Miami called, "Capsized".
