In 2023, Owen competed in the inaugural World's Toughest Row Pacific as one of 14 teams from across the world.  He successfully rowed from Monterey, California to  Kauai, Hawaii - departing on June 12, 2023 and arriving on August 27, 2023.  45 days, 6 hours and 17 minutes - covering 2,452 miles.  In doing so, Owen joined a very select group of Americans who have rowed more than one ocean.  Owen's row was once again in support of Okizu and he raised an additional $116,000 for this amazing organization.
