Charlie Martell attempted to row solo and unsupported for 6,000 miles across the North Pacific from Japan to the USA. The objectives of the challenge were:
1. To set a new crossing record (solo record is 130 days);
2. To become the first Briton to complete this route alone, and:
3. In so doing, to raise funds for, and awareness of, two specific charities.
