Four Wicklow men have set out to beat the Guinness world record for rowing around the island of Ireland. They’re trying to beat the previous record of 32 days and 7 hours. They’ve set off from the west coast and are on route around the island. 

12 months of preparation, hard work and the support of their entire communities have helped them set sail to raise money for their local charities. Speaking from the Irish costal waters was Diarmuid Bhroin, Captain of the rowing team.
