Long Distance Rower
"Philly Joe" Kolodziejski passing through Rhode
Island.
Joe is on a solo rowing trip. His
plan is to circumnavigate the contiguous 48 states and most of Mexico. So far his
trip has taken him from Texas,
along the gulf coast, around the Florida keys, and up the
east coast into Maine for a total of over 6,000 miles. Most of this
was done in the Intercoastal Waterway. He plans to continue across Canada,
touching on Alaska, down the west coast, through the Panama Canal, then back
north to Texas. When he is done, he will have traveled over 24,000
miles.
Joe has selected the FrontRower forward
facing rowing system for
propulsion. The boat he is using is a Sea Wind designed by
legendary expedition paddler Verlen Kruger. Click
