The Boat Geeks #46 - Jordan Hannsen, O.A.R. Northwest, Tiny Boat Sessions
Jordan is a driven man. From setting a world record rowing across the Atlantic Ocean to surviving a capsize out on the ocean, he also written and book about his adventures and is making a documentary film.
Recorded on location in the Fisheries Supply "Live at the Wooden Boat Festival Stage" during the 2025 Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival (PTWBF), your host Darren takes a deep dive into the world of boating.
This episode: With Daeron on a temporary hiatus, Darren sits down with Jordan to discuss his upbringing and what led him and three friends to row and race across the Atlantic Ocean, coming in First Place and setting a Guinness Record in the process. And on his second row across the pond for science and education, how how their boat capsized, and their subsequent rescue and ultimate finding of their boat. They also touch on Jordan's row down the Mississippi River, and his very popular Tiny Boat Sessions - music on the water.
