S2E4 - Dammie Onafeko: Losing Sight, Finding Vision

After losing his vision to cataracts in his 30s, Dammie Onafeko wanted to get involved with a specialized sport.

And Dammie is hard to miss around the boathouse: at 6’5”, this Nigerian man is a presence.

Take a listen to our interview with him, which is full of his quietly profound perspectives on rowing and life.
