Tom Robinson plans to become the youngest person to row across the Pacific Ocean.  (ABC Radio Brisbane: Edwina Seselja)
When Brisbane man Tom Robinson was 14, he woke up early for rowing training with a big idea lodged in his brain: He was going to row across the Pacific Ocean. 
By the time he'd put the oars down that morning, his plan was already in motion. 
Fast forward to today and the now 22-year-old — who has completed his apprenticeship in marine craft construction — is putting the final touches on the rowboat in which he plans to make the epic voyage.
