Monkey Fist Adventures

Let us introduce you to our name sake 👋🏼

Monkey Fist - The Ocean Rowing Boat.

She will keep us safe and increasingly warm as we make the 5,500 mile crossing across the Indian Ocean 🌊.

Here Glyn takes you through a short walk through 🫡.

We may or may not be able to do the broody looks to camera.. and we may crack a smile but we shall try 🫣.

Slight departure change due to … “some Australian red tape” - good still isn’t here..at this rate we might be going just with snacks 🫣.

Love you all.

Rowing 5,500 miles unsupported across the Indian Ocean isn’t just a test of muscle—it’s a brutal game of mental survival. We will face 100 days of absolute isolation, severe sleep deprivation, and intense environmental stress. Every single day, our minds will be pushed to the absolute limit.

That is why the Brainwaves crew is incredibly proud to be rowing to raise vital funds and awareness for Rock2Recovery ( ). 🛡️⚔️

Rock2Recovery does life-changing, lifesaving work for the heroic people who keep us safe. They provide fast-turnaround, non-clinical mental health support for veterans, first responders, emergency services personnel, and their families who are battling PTSD, severe anxiety, and mental health crises.

Their approach is unique. There are no clinical waiting lists or rigid boxes. Instead, their specialist coaches provide immediate, tailored, and proactive sessions designed to help individuals find their ‘rock’—the thing that brings them stability—and guide them on a clear path to recovery.

Our emergency services and military personnel run toward trauma every single day to protect us. Rock2Recovery is there to catch them when the weight of that trauma becomes too heavy to carry alone.

We are proud to carry their logo on our boat. Please hit the link in our bio to donate to our £500,000 target and help us fund this vital lifeline. 🌊💪
