Maclean brothersThree Scottish brothers have left through the Pacific Ocean in a record attempt of 14,000 km.
The Maclean brothers, Ewan, Jamie and Lachlan, are aimed at completing the fastest and fastest line from Peru to Sydney in Australia.
They were eliminated by the followers, a fleet of boats and the brass band of the Peruvian Navy when they left Lima in their custom boat on Saturday.
The Edimburg brothers hope to spend more than 120 days at sea, rowing in two hours around the clock without results or safety boats.
Maclean brothersLachlan Maclean, 26, said: “He is definitely discouraging, but we have prepared so much time that we are desperate to start.
“In many ways, we are a bit rare: I am probable happier in the water. I have never responded to responding to the emails, and now I have the best excuse in the world.”
The night before the exit, Lachlan was full of vacuum cleaner to save space in the cabin, while older brother Ewan was fixing a broken water manufacturer.
Ewan, 33, a former Dyson engineer, said: “We forget things when we are going to leave the weekend, so preparing for more than 120 days at sea does not have the leg with its challenges.
“When the water manufacturer broke, I thought the game was awake, we could find another part, but I appreciated that I managed to fix it.
“All those years working as an engineer have been useful.”
Maclean brothersThe brothers’ 280 kg ship was built to be one of the The lighter and stronger ocean remote boats ever manufactured.
She is called Rose Emily in memory of her unborn sister, with her name hand painted in the helmet by her mother.
On board there are 500 kg of lyophilized foods, which include 75 kg of oats and a menu or comforting foods of high calorie prepared by Jamie.
Meals include beef chili, Curry Red Thai and Haggis, Neeps and Tatties, hoping to add fresh fish captured in the sea.
Jamie Maclean, 31, added: “We know that this will be difficult for mom and dad, to have the three isolated in the sea.
“But they have incredible leg support. They have worked as hard as we have to prepare and we cannot wait to see them when we remail the port of Sydney.”
The route covers about 14,000 km (8,700 miles) depending on the conditions.
The Macleans aim to get to Australia before August 2.
