THE CITIZEN
TEAM ANTIGUA GIRLS TO ROW THE PACIFIC OCEAN The fearless Team Antigua Girls made history in the 2018 Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge as the first all-female Caribbean team and the first all-black team to row across the Atlantic. The fabulous foursome, Christal Clashing, Elvira Bell, Kevinia Francis and Samara Emman, have announced that they will compete in the inaugural Pacific Challenge in 2023. The Pacific Challenge is a 2,800 nautical mile race from Monterey Bay in California to Nawiliwili Harbour in Kauai, Hawaii. Fundraising activities will start soon, and they have already begun their gruelling training to prepare themselves for this incredible feat.
