MEET THE TEAM
Rowers of the Atlantic Ocean 2025
ROB OLIVER
Skipper
Rob, an accomplished musician and a familiar face on the local music scene, was the original founder of DeadLegz.
Rob is the foundation of the DeadLegz group and as such was the perfect choice for the boat skipper position.
MATT HUMPHRIES
Crew
Matt joined DeadLegz for the first challenge, and has been active in charity endurance and fun-run events throughout the years.
​
Having known Rob for the best part of 20 years, he was a natural to bring on board for this challenge.
KEV JOYNES
Crew
Kev is a recent addition to the DeadLegz crew. He is a powerhouse of charitable events, co-running a local festival and a community champion in his local area.
​
Kev's knowledge and experience will be invaluable for this journey across the Atlantic.
