Brothers on a boat

🛶 Row, row, row, your boat... Brothers Jack, Hamish, Euan, and Arthur Friend had only rowed a handful of times before setting off on a 3,000-mile journey across the Atlantic.
- The two sets of twins spent just over a month at sea, rotating rowing duties and surviving on dehydrated food as part of the Talisker Atlantic Challenge.
🌊 An all-time Friendship... Despite their lack of experience, the Friend brothers came in third place out of 43 competitors, raising £100,000 for UK charities in the process.
- 'It's just been incredible," said Hamish of the journey. "And you just sort of think of the finish line so much in a challenge like this, so when you actually cross it – it's just such a weird experience.'"
