2 Britons set sail to cross the Pacific in rowboat

CHOSHI, Japan - Tim Welford (L), 33, and Dominic Mee, 30, pose for photographers May 5 before they set sail from the port of Choshi, Chiba Prefecture, for San Francisco in a manually-powered rowboat. The two, both members of the British Royal Marines, aim to arrive in San Francisco in about 120 days with no outside support on the voyage of some 9,200 kilometers. The boat is 7.1 meters long, about 1.9 meters wide and weighs around 1.3 tons fully outfitted.
