Alan Bustin-Mulkern, who served in the Royal Artillery and is member of the Honourable Artillery Company, is taking on the Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge to raise money for ABF The Soldiers’ Charity.
The Challenge will see 47-year old Alan from Northampton, row 3,000 nautical miles from the Canary Islands to Antigua. As yet, Alan hasn’t decided if he will be partnering up for the task or taking it on solo, commenting: “The plan is that if it is a pair taking it on, we aim to complete it in 45 days, but if I go solo then it will hopefully take 60 days.”
