Not your typical rowboat. Looks like she had a sheltered area and place to sleep. Very impressive though. Did she get resupplied along the way or carry everything with her to entire trip?
I wouldn't try it. About 2 hrs in and my back and arms would have given out. After all that rowing she probably has a good strong back. She can come split some firewood for me now.
