Atlantic Rowing Race

Max
Have reverted your changes to Atlantic Rowing Race as Angela Masden and Frank Festor rowed in the 2007 race, where they already appear, not the 2005 race, where you inserted them. Their story is quite fascinating [1], but if told in full, would probably dominate the article.
There is also some confusion about the boat name. Officially this entry was called "Bout de Vie" in the 2005 race and "Row of Life" in the 2007, although it is the same boat, and the French have carried on calling it "Bout de Vie"
