Which of the seven oceans was the hardest and why?
For me, the Tsugaru Strait presented the most difficult challenge. As the final leg of a year-long campaign, I carried a considerable amount of physical and mental fatigue coming into it. Additionally, no one had successfully crossed the strait in 2023 out of 13 attempts. On the day, we experienced some really harsh conditions. And to make matters worse, I was vomiting within the first 30 minutes. Despite the challenges, my team and I persevered, ultimately triumphing against the odds.
