Yikes this definitely takes me back, do you twitter?

Bookmarking now cheers, please consider a follow up post.
This is a great blog and you should seriously think about building up this blog into a serious authority in this field, I’m sure you could definitely make a dollar or two from some ads. I would look into following recent news and raising the number of posts you make and I bet you’d start receiving some easy traffic soon. Just a thought, good luck regardless!
Yikes this definitely takes me back, i’ve been wondering about this subject for a while.
I enjoyed this. Needed more pictures though.
Go go go Shaun!!!! You are nearly home, amazing effort mate, finish well! Enjoy the landing.
This wee country sure turns out some AMBITIOUS men!!And no not crazy!!
You are one such dude and you have almost reached the finish line..Fantastic. I have another one currently running, yes on foot, across THE ATACAMA DESERT in Chile and in April the next one is Northern Territory, Austrailia
So my man this could also be your next mind blowing challenge should you choose to accept it.
Hi there Shaun, Good Luck on your rowing. We are following your journey.
We think you are very brave!
best wishes from all of the kids in Room 7
Ahipara is a beautiful beach – here’s a picture from a few years back: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thebackyard/372981659/
You’re so close now Quincey. Your red line on the map seems to have headed directly West for most of the last 24 hrs. Way to go! Whilst we’re all willing you home soon, safe & sound, please keep going till Tuesday so we can all be back from Ohope to welcome you in!!! Hope the weather you talked about on the podcast doesn’t cause you any problems. God speed & take good care of yourself. Awesome job, The Bucks.
Quincey mate, almost there, doing amazingly! Ride those wild west coast waves ashore… Maybe you could make a grand entrance surfing a wave in at Piha or Muriwai!!
Tear it up big guy, looking forward to seeing you with the sand between your toes! Your doing and awesome job!!
Good to see you spirits are up still. Hope it is shipwreck bay – not far from where I live on the east coast over in Doubtless bay! Nice and sheltered there so a great landing site. Great article in NZ geo to! Good luck over the next few days and look after those oars!
Hi Shaun
Like the work you’ve done
like Father like son
my Teacher Mr Pike shows us each day about your journey
keep it up
Cleo
Every day I am out on my bike doing it hard I think of you, especially when I really can’t be bothered going and the body is asking me why. But you are still going and probably more bored and definitely more sore than I am so off we go… Keep on rowing just keep rowing.Just remember too when you make land there will be people waiting, and for every one there, thousands will be waiting for the news on 3 with Campbell Live, and then we will woohoo! at the TV.
Heres a Jamieson joke for you.. Knock knock, Whos there, Bumble Bee, Bumble bee who? Bumble be cold if you don’t put your pants on!! Jamieson and Maree
My son Jamieson is 5 years old and he is amazed at your rowing mission, I am too! He has many questions which I cannot answer, but one that really cracked me up… Why is he rowing from Australia, why not get on a plane?!
Conditions for Surf nationals starting tomorrow is looking great, thou not much of a wave for the boaties….yet. Remember 2008 nationals?
You truely are an inspiration for young and old, keep focused and row safe. Jamieson and Maree – Ohope Beach
Great work Shaun, Not far to go now. Enjoyed your podcast. Thanks for keeping us all up to date with your progress.
