Edinburgh’s McLeen Brothers set a new record for Prashant Ro

Three brothers from Edinburgh have set a new record for crying non-stop and are unable to the Pacific Ocean after 140 days in the sea.

The brothers, who re -joined Cairns in Cairns in Eastern Australia with their family and friends, said they were ready to pizza – and a decent night sleep.

McLean completed her line in her boat, Rose Emily, who was named in memory of her unborn sister.

The brothers, who have so far raised more than £ 700,000 of the target of £ 1M for clean water projects in Madagascar, expected to complete their journey in a faster time.

But bad weather disrupted its efforts including high winds overnight on Thursday and Friday.

Talking to BBC Scotland News on Thursday, Lachalan said: “The main thing on all our brains, the family and our girlfriends are a fresh bed with a fresh linen sheet – and a shower.”

He said that the line was relatively smoothly before the circumstances became more challenging in about half the way across the sea.

Lachalan said: “Till then we had a lot of consistent air and weather.

“Then we had an anti-cylone that we could not escape.”

During the 36-hour storm in July, Lachan was washed overboard.

The 27 -year -old said he was lucky that he was connected by a boat by a security line during the 40mph (64 km/h) winds and 6 meters (20 ft) waves.

He was dragged behind the craft before the 33 -year -old Ivan, he was able to help her to scrape her back to the board.

Later, a cyclone forced the brothers to leave the plan to enter the Brisbane and forced them to take a round around the new Calledonia Islands in the remote Caldonia to avoid the storm.

The brothers had to bring all their food – 500 kg freeze – dried food and 75 kg oats.

He had sufficient provisions for the last 150 days, but Lachan said that he started supplying himself in the last few weeks for further delays in reaching Australia.

Lachalan said: “We still had a reserve of military ration, but we did not want to tuck them.

“They were there for emergency, and they also do not taste very good.”

He said that the “final resort” was a fishing rod that they brought with them to catch their food if they run out of all their supply.

Moral was a significant concern for the rovers, one of the biggest challenges with lack of sleep.

Brothers, who completed a record-breaking line in Atlantic In 2020Tried to get at least five or six hours of sleep in a block up to three hours around the long innings on the Ors.

Sharing a chocolate bar, or making each other coffee helped to increase your souls.

Lachalan said: “We are having super power brothers.

“You can be completely clear with each other and we have very much more common history, and it means that you are less likely to fall out.”

He said that his primary inspiration was to raise money, and Lachlan thanked those who donated.

He said: “We have completely flew away how it has gone.”

Fresh food and a comfortable bed are ready for a comfortable bed, Lachan said that he would recall nights under the star -filled sky and remember close encounters with whales, dolphins and sea birds.

32 -year -old Jamie described adventure work as “the most incredible, tireless and often real” of his life.

He said: “While I can miss routine, solitude, sunset, and sunrise and more, right now, I am very happy to come back to the ground with my friends and family, which I have missed a lot.

“The whole thing will take some time to drown.”

He said: “It won’t surprise anyone – but I want there is a pizza.

“Things became difficult towards the end and we seriously thought that we could get out of food.

“How tired we were, we had to take a gear step and have to make it before running out of supply, but now we get to eat proper food.

Ivan said: “The days are long and yet the week has swept away in the past, it is strange to think about the time we have spent here.

“This is the most difficult task that I have ever done, and I could not consider it even without my brothers.”
