The co-winner of the 2003 Trans-Atlantic Rowing Race will crack you up with his riotous couch potato-to-champion story.
One day, Kevin Biggar quit his job, girlfriend and house and then ended up on his mum’s couch, watching daytime TV and feeling sorry for himself. Then he did the unthinkable … got off the couch and decided to row the Atlantic. No-one thought he could do it, but after teaming up with the Naked Rower, Rob Hamill, he gradually became a force to be reckoned with. But during the race, he has to weather storms, a media circus, protests and capsizing ...
A top Auckland writer (who still lives with his mum), Kevin writes with a deadpan sense of humour that’s hard to resist.
