Office and industrial agent ACRE Capital's trio of rowers in the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge, who rowed across the Atlantic, have broken the world record.
ACRE sponsored a team of three rowers known as Dark Trio, Gareth Keighley, Charlie Taylor and Aaron Kneebone, for the challenge that began in the Canary Islands and ended in Antigua.
The trio rowed 2,748 miles using over 1.5 million oar strokes. The time of 35 days, one hour and 32 minutes is a new world record, beating the previous world record of 36 days, nine hours, nine minutes by over seven hours.
The team consumed 8,000 calories per day during the challenge and came face to face with a whale, a marlin and dolphins.
They were sponsored by ACRE while raising money for mental health charity Young Minds.
