If you scroll down the page you will see the NBC clip titled “Coastal Calamity” as well as the 7 minute short trailer about our expedition/documentary. I am searching for representation to help me obtain a premier sponsor and corporate sponsorships.
Our team includes Jamie Mitchell who is the current and 6X world champion paddleboarder. as well as his brother Justin and Keven “Tarzan” Eslinger. We will require a support vessel which will demonstrate the sponsors boldly as we paddle approx, 20 miles every day on the 1100 mi. expedition. This will become a huge media story.
As you can see by viewing this action packed truly “reality show” there is huge potential for our sponsors.

Just take a look and let me know what you think and ask any questions by calling me at;
530-386-2449 or at the above e-mail address.

Sincerely,
Tim Kessler
