History
On 21st May 1980, 27-year-old Kenneth Kerr left Canada on his second attempt to row across the Atlantic in the 13ft glass-fibre dinghy Bass Conqueror. 156 days after setting out all communication with Kenneth Kerr ceased and he was never seen again. The boat was recovered near Stavanger in January 1981.
