Kayak Across the Atlantic

is an extraordinary first-hand account of the first ever single-handed crossing of the North Atlantic, achieved against all formidable odds.

Former SAS Sergeant Pete Bray's solo unsupported voyage in a flimsy twenty-seven-foot kayak is one of the most courageous feats undertaken by man through one of the most inhospitable oceans in the world.

For seventy-six days, the indomitable Cornishman paddled relentlessly across more than 2,000 miles of sea, enduring extremes of fatigue, equipment failure and foul weather before finally making landfall on the west coast of Ireland a few days before 9/11 in 2001.
