Brothers row Atlantic for Feedback Madagascar
Three Scottish brothers who will be rowing 3000 miles across the Atlantic Ocean officially launched their boat onto the much calmer waters of Loch Lomond.
The MacLean brothers, Jamie, Ewan and Lachlan who make up team BROAR, will be the first 3 brothers to row any ocean as they take on the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge this December.
Named the world’s toughest row, the brothers will be taking on this challenge in order to raise £250,000 for their chosen charities, Children 1stand Feedback Madagascar.
They are taking part in a 3,000 mile unsupported rowing race across the Atlantic ocean, called the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. It starts in La Gomera and finishes in Antigua, and is known as "the world’s toughest row".
Rowing day and night, repeating shifts of two hours of rowing and one hour of rest until they reach the other side, the crossing will take between 40 to 60 days through 40-foot waves, shark-infested waters and busy shipping lanes.
Please help us reach our goal by donating something today. Even a couple quid means the world to us and will make a huge difference to the causes we are supporting.
