Although others have rowed the Indian Ocean from Australia to Mauritius, Seychelles or Madagascar, Erden is the first person to row across the entire ocean from Australia to mainland Africa. Erden completed this journey as part of his record-breaking first solo circumnavigation of the globe using human power.
