 * Keep - Although WP:ATHLETE does not specifically address ocean rowing, being part of the crew for two world records meets the spirit of the athletic notability guidelines as competing at the highest level of his sport. Coverage exists that verify he was crew on the Sara G.  There is some more coverage about him and one of the other crew specifically.  Although behind a pay wall this article clearly has him as the primary subject. -- Whpq (talk) 16:52, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep - this athlete is named on this link on the Ocean Rowing Society's website (who are the adjudicators for Ocean Rowing for the Guinness World Records) as being a member of the crew of the Sara G. This crew are currently the world record holders for the fastest ever crossing of the Atlantic by oar and the world record holders for the most number of consecutive days rowing 100+miles or more.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smmccann (talk • contribs) 21:49, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
