Lightship Atlantic

CrewSmart is proud to announce its sponsorship of Lightship Atlantic, a team featuring one of our shareholders, Nia Baylis, as she embarks on the World’s Toughest Row across the Atlantic Ocean alongside her rowing partner, Pammie Tyson.

This intense challenge will push them to the limits of human endurance as they navigate volatile weather conditions, maintain a relentless physical effort, and overcome considerable mental hurdles throughout the crossing.

In response to recent weather forecasts, event organisers have moved the start date forward to Wednesday, 11th December. This decision aims to provide competitors with a more favourable weather window, allowing them to make crucial early gains before conditions change.

Supporters can track Nia and Pammie’s progress by following “World’s Toughest Row” and “Lightship Atlantic” on Facebook or Instagram. Additionally, the YB Races app offers live tracking for dedicated ‘dot watchers’ eager to monitor each moment of their journey.

Beyond this physical feat, Nia’s story is marked by personal generosity and resilience. Last year, she donated a kidney to her brother, a selfless act that has since enabled him to thrive. In keeping with this giving spirit, Lightship Atlantic is raising funds for Kidney Wales, a cause that remains close to Nia’s heart.

“We are immensely proud to be sponsoring Nia and the Lightship Atlantic team as they take on this extraordinary challenge. Her unwavering determination, courage, and generosity perfectly mirror the values we hold at CrewSmart. We’ll be following her journey closely and wish both Nia and Pammie the very best of luck as they head across the Atlantic.”
