'After 86 days at sea, Perth man Rob Barton is believed to be the first person
to row non-stop solo and unassisted across the Indian Ocean from Australia to
Africa.

He spoke to ABC Perth Mornings presenter Nadia Mitsopoulos from the shores of
Tanga in Tanzania.

"I haven't got my land legs yet, so I'm walking around like a drunken sailor,
and I haven't had anything to drink," he said.

"It's quite bizarre. It's fantastic. It's a great feeling."'
