Dinner with the Macleans

Dinner at Sea | Lorraine Kelly


Listen Later

Join Ewan, Jamie, and Lachlan Maclean – the Scottish brother trio currently halfway through a non-stop, 9,000-mile row across the Pacific – as they break bread (well, freeze-dried dinners!) mid-mission with Scotland’s national treasure.

In the middle of their attempt to break the world record from Lima to Sydney, the Maclean Brothers open up about life at sea aboard their carbon-fibre boat, Rose Emily. Battling brutal weather, salt sores, a faulty autohelm and a broken water maker, they still find time to share laughs, stories, and dehydrated meals.

In this honest and uplifting conversation, recorded while rowing in shifts, they discuss:

  • Prepping 1,800 freeze-dried meals – and where on earth they store them

  • Founding the Maclean Foundation and their mission to provide clean water in Madagascar

  • How no one’s walked the plank (yet) thanks to brotherly bonds

  • The incredible marine life they've encountered,including whales in stormy seas

Tune in for a raw, heartwarming episode.
