[00:00:00]How about George Harbo and Frank Samuelson? They rowed an open boat from New York to France. Amazing. [music] In 1896.

[00:00:10]Shortly after starting for France from New York in a rowboat, Harbo and Samuelson's craft [music] capsized. Most of their provisions were lost.

[00:00:19]Passing boats replenished their small stock. [music] They then arrived at the Scilly Islands less than 2 months after setting out from New York and then continued on [music] to Havre, France.
