Reid Stowe:
1000 Days at Sea - Fact Sheet
Reid Stowe, a NYC artist/sailor departed land on 21 April, 2007 to attempt the longest sea
voyage in history, 1000 days non-stop at sea. He was accompanied by his girlfriend and first mate, Soanya Ahmad. The longest continuous time on record was 657 days held by the Australian, Jon Sanders after his triple circumnavigation in 1987. After a close call collision, many storms, and Ahmad returning to land thereby making Stowe a solo sailor, Stowe finally achieved his goal of remaining at sea for 1,000 days (2 years, 7 months and 4 days) without resupply or touching land.

In the process he set or broke 5 world records. He will continue to sail beyond 1000 days, returning on 17 June, 2010 when the North Atlantic has more favorable sailing weather. A JouBeh (previously known as Metocean) tracking unit verifies the Anne’s position via satellite. (see Google map at www.1000days.net)
