May 19, 2012 - 09:03 pm
Lewis Colam is rowing 1,400 miles up the Atlantic coast by himself.
He's doing it with the goal of raising $50,000 to help find a cure for Alzheimer's disease.
The 24-year-old man had never rowed before. But now he's rowing 10-12 hours per day and sleeping most nights on his boat.
WATCH: ABC7's Ben Eisler has the story.
