Mainstream Renewable Power Sponsors TheLastFirst Rowboat Claiming Arctic Passage World First

I JUST HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TWIST THE TRUTH FOR SELF SERVING PURPOSES - THELASTFIRST ROWBOAT CREW HAS HOODWINKED MAINSTREAM RENEWABLE POWER INTO BEING A SPONSOR SAYING THEIR ARCTIC (NORTHWEST) PASSAGE WILL BE A WORLD FIRST.

BULLSHIT - THAT IS A BLATANT LIE OF OBVIOUS FALICY!

SEE WHAT IS BEING REPORTED ON THE MAINSTREAMRP.COM WEBSITE:

A FEW SELECT QUOTES...

"Renewable Power today announced its sponsorship of a rowing expedition attempting a world first through the infamous Northwest Passage in the Canadian Arctic"

1. THE ROUTE BETWEEN ARCTIC HAMLETS INUVIK AND POND INLET IS ABOUT 1600 MILES. THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE IS BETWEEN DAVIS STRAIT ATLANTIC ARCTIC CIRCLE AND THE BERING SEA PACIFIC ARCTIC CIRCLE. A DISTANCE OF OVER 3300 MILES. 

NOT EVEN CLOSE TO A NW PASSAGE... 1500 VS 3300 MILES. I'D BE EMBARRASSED TO MAKE SUCH A CLAIM AFTER BEING ADVISED OF THE FACTS... CONTINUING MISREPRESENTATION... BOY DOES THAT SPEAK VOLUMES.

NEXT, A NEWS MEDIA SNIPPET (HYPERBOLA FROM ROWER PAUL GLESSON) AND MAP PICTURES FOR A BETTER UNDERSTANDING...

The Final Frontier: Irish rowing team attempts the Northwest Passage
In July, Irish and Canadian rowers will attempt the first crossing of the Northwest Passage in the Arctic Ocean, one of the world’s most notorious sea routes, in a single season





. "...attempting to become the first ever people to cross the 3,000 km passage by human power alone in a single season."

3. WHILE THE KEY WORDS ARE "IN A SINGLE SEASON" THEY WILL NOT BE THE FIRST TO ROW ANY DISTANCE IN THE ARCTIC. IF THEY THINK THIS EVENT IS GOING TO BE A WORLD FIRST I WOULD CHALLENGE THEM TO HAVE GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS AUTHENTICATE IT. GOOD LUCK!

FYI - 21 PRIVATE YACHTS MADE A TRANSIT OF THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE IN 2012 - MANY WERE SAILBOATS - DON'T TELL THEM THEY DIDN'T DO IT ON THEIR OWN STRENGTH.

BOTTOM LINE - THELASTFIRST ROWBOAT AND CREW ARE NOT CHALLENGING THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE - THEY ARE ROWING BETWEEN TWO ARCTIC HAMLETS, INUVIK AND POND INLET.

WILL THEY MAKE GOAL?:
 a) Arctic weather is intense - even during the summer season - expect ice and winds to challenge if not overwhelm oar power.
 b) 60-90 days with a crew of four will require millions of calories in food supplies - expect running out of fuel before reaching Pond Inlet.
 c) The rowboat 'craft' is a unique and unproven Arctic design/outfitting - shelter is the first rule of good survival - capsizing risk and auto-righting is technically unresolved - as in loaded 'craft' testing, no professional naval architect incline experiment booklet, without which deployment would not be prudent. The risk is just to great... failing to plan is planning to fall.

Adventure is just bad planning.

AND JUST FOR THE RECORD - IT'S BECOMING COLDER FOR THE LAST 80 YEARS, NOT WARMER. HERE IS THE ACTUAL NOAA TEMPERATURE DATA:


NOAA’s measured temperature data shows April has been cooling in the US since 1930.

81% Of The US Below Normal Temperatures In 2013

IN CASE YOU MISSED RECENT NEWS IN THE USA - ALL TIME RECORD COLD TEMPERATURE AND SNOW FOR MAY IN ARKANSAS (A USA STATE) - 31F AND 0.5" OF SNOW. THE LAST RECORD LOW TEMPERATURE WAS SET IN 1954 OF 35F.  MAY 3RD IS THE LATEST DATE SINCE RECORDS HAVE BEEN KEPT OF SNOW IN ARKANSAS.

“..scientific issues cannot be decided by a vote of scientists. A consensus is not, at any given time, a good predictor of where the truth actually resides..”

“..The “hockey stick” graph that the IPCC so touted has, it is my understanding, been debunked as junk science..”

“Climate is a very complex system with many variables including sun radiation cycles, ocean temperature, and possibly other factors that we are not even aware of.
There are studies and data out there that are being overlooked by the IPCC. Ultimately, maybe we are the biggest cause or maybe we are not, but the current push of saying that human activity is the cause is interfering with an unbiased and scientific evaluation.” 
“..and I do not think that a consensus has anything to do with whether a hypothesis is correct. Check out the history of science…you will find that scientific discovery is generally made by ignoring the ‘consensus..’” 
“..Science is based on scepticism and experimental proof. Whereas human GHG emissions certainly have a warming effect, the breakdown between natural and anthropogenic contributions to warming is poorly constrained.
Remember that the warming since 1650 AD (not 1900) is part of a real ‘millennial cycle’ whose amplitude cannot yet be explained by any quantitative theory.
Also, the computer climate models are both too complex to be readily understood and too simple to describe reality.
Believing their results is an act of faith…”

One last tongue-in-cheek belly laugh...

Obama Has Had The Fewest Hurricanes Of Any President

NOAA keeps hurricane records back to 1850. The average number of US hurricane strikes per presidency is almost eleven. Obama’s presidency has had only three hurricane strikes, matched only by Abraham Lincoln and Benjamin Harrison.
Grover Cleveland and FDR both presided over 26 hurricanes, almost nine times as many as Obama.
ScreenHunter_19 May. 08 06.04
During his state of the Union Address, Obama implied that the overwhelming consensus of science says hurricanes are getting worse. That is patently false.

THAT SAID... :-)
I THINK 'HORSE PUCKY' PUTS THELASTFIRST INTO PERSPECTIVE... AND MAY GOD SPEED YOUR ARCTIC ROWBOAT EXPEDITION FROM THE END OF THE ROAD AT INUVIK NWT CANADA... HOLLY COW ARE YOU BOYS IN FOR A RUDE AWAKING DURING YOUR ROW TOWARDS POND INLET... I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR BLOG POSTINGS. 

PLEASE BE FACTUAL!
