His nephew, Davis had spent a total of twelve days in a canoe before he joined Colin on an epic journey that would redefine the boundaries of canoeing; they were to become to first people to circumnavigate the UK mainland by open canoe.

Over eighty-six days they would face strong tidal rapids and huge open crossings, never before attempted in an open canoe, and overcome multiple capsizes and damaged equipment. This is the extraordinary story of two ordinary men, with a longing for an adventure.
