MISSION COMPLETE
On July 14, 2025, The Arctic Challenge team completed a 584-nautical-mile unassisted row from Engvik, Norway to Longyearbyen, Svalbard. They finished in 10 days and 5 hours, breaking the previous world speed record by more than five days.
Through grit and determination, the four-person crew of Jimmy Graham, Andrew Tropp, Hannah Huppi, and John Huppi set multiple world firsts, broke several world records, and raised critical funds for their charity partners. The expedition was more than a physical feat; it was a mission to inspire the next generation and support youth-driven causes.
“The Arctic pushed us to our absolute limits, but we never lost sight of the mission. Reaching Svalbard was more than a finish line. It was proof of what can be accomplished with perseverance, unity, and purpose.
Thank you to everyone who believed in us and supported this journey. We carried your encouragement with us every mile.”
- Andrew Tropp, Captain
