Oarsome clubs to row around Scotland

Rowing clubs from the north and north-east will be taking part in a mammoth expedition across the country’s coastline.

Groups, including Collieston Offshore Rowing Club in Aberdeenshire and Oban Rowing Club, are among 70 helping rowing legend Sue Fenton complete the challenge.
