Shetland charity rowers make it to Orkney
Six rowers who were rowing from Shetland to Orkney arrived at the Cornslip in Kirkwall today, after a marathon 20-hour journey.
The six men who were rowing to raise money for a CAT scanner in Shetland, left Sumburgh on Wednesday night at 5pm.
They then rowed to Fair Isle which took four hours. From there, after a short rest, they rowed for nine-and-a-half hours to get to Sanday.
From Sanday, they headed for Shapinsay, which took four-and-a half hours and after a brief stop, they reached their final destination, Kirkwall, just before 3pm today.
