Brett on the Water: The Old Man River Project w/videos

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.  So throw off the bowlines.  Sail away from the safe harbor.  Catch the trade winds in your sails.  Explore.  Dream.  Discover.” – Mark Twain

With all ten episodes of the web-series released, the York Boat, Annie has finally finished her 2400 mile journey down the mighty Mississippi.  To help raise awareness about drinking water, Brett, Cliff, Magnus, Sarah and Kyle set out on a 110 day adventure to row the entire length of the Ol’ Man River himself.  Struggling to portage their thousand pound, $25,000, hand built boat around 10 dams the team is further slowed down by locks and broken equipment throughout their adventure.  Thanks Brett for a glimpse at a great modern day adventure and documenting it to share with us.

All ten episodes are posted after the jump.  Go ahead; get lost on the Mississippi River for a while.
