Aquapac RoW Store > Outdoor Champions

"Across the world, Aquapac is proud to sponsor several teams and individuals who enjoy the great outdoors. Except they don't just enjoy it. They revel in it. They simply love it. Traditionally we've supported people involved in all manner of wind-powered or human-powered expeditions: solo-round-the-world sailors, long-distance kayakers, trans-ocean rowers. As well as pitting themselves against the elements, most also raise money for charity.

From that beginning, we've broadened our sponsorship - and we are now delighted to support inspirational people working to highlight the fragility of our beautiful planet, and committed individuals who help others to enjoy the great outdoors.

We call them the Aquapac Outdoor Champions.

Over the next year or so, we'll feature on this website a series of interviews with Aquapac Outdoor Champions. They range from the Antarctic Kayak Expedition and solo Pacific rowers to mountain-bikers, writers and photographers. There's even a bunch of guys racing a tuk-tuk across India.

Our first interview is with David Else, a professional writer specialising in travel and the outdoors.

David Else

Aquapac: You're a writer. What type of stuff do you write?

David: I write articles for magazines and websites, and over the years I've written about 40 guidebooks - mainly for international travel publisher Lonely Planet. (Continued)

Our second interview is with Daniel Fox, a proffessional photographer of the outdoors.

Daniel Fox

Aquapac: First, tell us about the Wild Image Project - what is it?

Daniel: When I was young I religiously watched the TV shows of Jacques Cousteau and David Attenborough, and dreamed of one day doing the same. After trying for 10 years to comply within the business world, I decided it's never too late to return to your dreams. So I created the Wild Image Project - to travel the remote places of this beautiful world, to photograph and film nature's beauty. I hope to inspire the world in the same way that Jacques Cousteau and David Attenborough inspired me. (continued)

Roz Savage

Aquapac: You're best known for your epic rowing voyages across the world's great oceans. Tell us first about your Atlantic row.

Roz: At the age of 37 I set out to row solo across the Atlantic - a distance of 3,000 miles. I'd rowed before, at college, which was enough to give me the happy delusion that rowing across an ocean was something I was vaguely qualified to do. But of course rowing on the River Thames and rowing across the Atlantic are wildly different propositions!
