This week’s big story is about three brothers from Scotland – Ewan, 27, Jamie, 26, and Lachlan, 21 – who broke three world records for rowing across the Atlantic.
The MacLeans not only beat the record for the fastest time for a trio to row across the ocean, but utterly smashed it. They did it in just 35 days, six days quicker than the previous record.
They also became the youngest trio to row the ocean, and the first set of three brothers to do it.
Starting on the 12 December and finishing on the 16 January, this 3,000-mile feat took them from La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, which is situated off the west coast of Morocco and Western Sahara in Africa, to Antigua, in the Caribbean.
The brothers are using their success to raise money for several charities, including Children First – a charity for young people in Scotland.
