Jasmine Harrison: She’s 21 and just became the youngest female to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean
“Briton Jasmine Harrison, 21, has become the youngest female to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean after completing a 3,000-mile (4,800-kilometer) journey from Spain to Antigua, according to organizer Atlantic Campaigns.
Harrison completed the 2020 Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge on Saturday in 70 days, 3 hours and 48 minutes — a new world record for the youngest female to row solo across any ocean, Atlantic Campaigns said.
Along the way, she had a ‘near collision with a drilling ship, two capsizes, lots of peanut butter and Nutella consumed,’ Harrison said on Twitter.”
