BROAR - the first THREE BROTHERS to row any ocean

THE AIM

Our aim is to become the first three brothers and the youngest trio to row across the Atlantic Ocean.

In doing so we will be raising as much money and awareness as possible for our two charities, Feedback Madagascar & Children 1st.

Why are we doing this?

THREE BROTHERS

We are a team of three brothers from Edinburgh, with a shared passion for adventure, sport and music.

Meet the brothers

THE CHALLENGE

The Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge is a 3,000 mile rowing race across the Atlantic Ocean from

Who’s ready for some music from the Broar band to kickstart their Sunday?
Thanks to @realmackaystv and the team at @stv.news for inviting the boys to play to close out Monday’s episode of Scotland Tonight last week, and for letting us post the video so all those who missed it can see it.
Let us know if you’d like to see the Broar band perform live. They’re more than just rowers...

There’s been a distinct lack of Lachlan on the grid recently, so let’s take a look at the youngest Broar, who’s still living it up in Antigua.
He really changed during 35 days, nine hours and nine minutes at sea; spiritually, emotionally and, as you can see from the pic, physically.
If you’re stuck for something to do this evening, why not play a game of spot the difference with Lachlan’s before and after pictures? Answers in the comments below.
If you’re not sick of the sight of Ewan and Jamie from all their TV appearances, you can swipe left to see their before and after pictures as well.

If they were going to meet @realmackaystv , the least they could have done is worn a tie!
But no, these two rockstars of the sea, the badass bagpiper and the ukulele Mac daddy, don’t live by “the rules”. Tune into @stv.news #scotlandtonight at 10.40pm to see Jamie take the bagpipes for a walk and Ewan add a fourth world record, the longest guitar solo ever on Scottish terrestrial television, to his growing list of accolades.
Rumour has it that despite comprehensive media training, Jamie and Ewan MAY have forgotten to mention the charities that they started all this rowing malarkey for in the first place. They must have been a bit star struck after meeting @realmackaystv.
So just like Broar used to do at sea, make a cup of cocoa to get ready for the night shift, but instead of jumping on the oars, jump on to Broar’s @vmgiving page (link in bio) and donate to @feedbackmadagascar and @children1st. It will be 10.40pm and time for #BroaronScotlandTonight in no time.

What a day! Despite what you might think, the boys

What a day! Despite what you might think, the boys loved getting back on the oars, and better yet it was back where it all began, on Scottish water.
They had a great day thanks to the lovely people @trooncoastalrowingclub who kindly lent them use of one of their boats.
And thanks to @bbcaileenclarke for the excellent piece on @bbcscotnews . You can watch it back on @bbciplayer

After speaking to @bbcnaga and Charlie live from Antigua, two of the three @broaratlantic brothers joined them on the @bbcbreakfast couch this morning to tell more tales from their record-breaking row, which was all to raise funds for @children1st and @feedbackmadagascar .
Youngest brother Lachlan is still “finding himself” in the Caribbean, but managed to take a break from soaking up sun and scrubbing decks to entertain the people of Britain as they enjoyed their toast.
.
Tomorrow, make sure to tune into at @bbcjohnbeattie on @bbcradioscot to hear an in-depth interview with the dynamic duo.

After conquering the Atlantic Ocean, Jamie and Ewa

After conquering the Atlantic Ocean, Jamie and Ewan have decided to conquer the New York food scene. They realised the flight back home connected through the Big Apple, so they thought it would be rude not to visit the city that never sleeps, after spending 35 days on the boat that never slept.
It’s heartwarming to see Ewan and Jamie, still not sick of the sight of each other. But if the autohelm and iPhone cables breaking couldn’t cause a rift between the pair, despite their exhaustion, then a decision over which Brooklyn pizza joint to visit is unlikely to 🍎🍕🗽. They’ll soon be back in the UK for a busy schedule of interviews and speaking opportunities. If you have an opportunity for the boys upon their return, they’d love to hear from you. Just slide into their DMs or email media@broar.co.uk.
So where’s Lachlan? Well he decided he’s had enough of his brothers, but not enough of boats. He’s staying in Antigua to live the life of a beach bum/deck hand before returning to Scotland in summer to finish his final year at @GlasgowUniversity.
The only remaining question is, will he row back? 🚣🏼

#TBT to two weeks ago, when Broar arrived in Antigua after 35 days, nine hours and nine minutes at sea. What a video by @lostclock 🎥
After some well-deserved rest and relaxation in Antigua, the boys are now planning their next move. For two of them, it will be back home to Scotland, but Lachlan has some other ideas...

As you can see from the previous post, the boys have acquired moustaches. But how else did their bodies change during their world record-breaking row?
The question you’ve all been asking is: “what do their hands and feet look like after 35 days at sea?
Well ask no more, because this picture has the answer.
With their relentless positivity and all-singing, all-bagpiping approach, it has been easy to forget how relentless and monumental a challenge the #twac2019 was. The strain they put their bodies through is impossible to comprehend and they continue to struggle with the after effects as they adjust to life back on land.
Every single salt sore, sleepless night and bout of food poisoning will have been worth it though if they reach their fundraising goal. To donate to Broar’s @vmgiving page, just click the link in our bio 🤚🦶 #WorldsToughestRow #CharityChallenge

It will take FAR more than 35 days on the Atlantic Ocean to grow a moustache which can contend with Broar’s dad, Charles MacLean.
Which brother do you think could one day could grow a moustache as powerful as Charlie’s? 👨🏼‍🦱👨🏻‍🦱👨🏼👴🏻
