Salty Science are Chantale Bégin, Isabelle Côté Noelle Helder, and Lauren Shea, and all four of them are marine scientists. In December of 2023, they rowed across the Atlantic Ocean as part of The World's Toughest Row. They finished first in the women's division, and overall 7th out of 38 teams, finishing in front of many of the men's teams as well.
Their objective was to raise money and awareness to support charities focused on marine conservation education. I was able to chat with the team again to discuss the challenges and triumphs of their journey, and their experiences along the way.
