Goal

In December 2026, endurance athlete Katie Spotz will set out to row 10,000 miles solo across the Pacific Ocean aiming to break the record for the longest nonstop ocean row in history and become the first American woman to row the Pacific solo.


This journey is more than a world-first. It’s a mission to help bring clean water to 100,000 people in Fiji and beyond.


Before every ripple can reach Fiji, the boat must first reach the water.


Your contribution here fuels the expedition itself — funding the boat, safety gear, food, and logistics that make this mission possible.


💙 $10 = 1 mile of the 10,000-mile journey.
💙 $50 = 5 miles across the open Pacific.
💙 $100 = 10 miles through storms and sunrise.
💙 $250 = 25 miles closer to the finish line.


Help bring the boat to the water — so together, we can bring clean water to the world.
