Welcome to the Virtual RAS! The routes of every day’s rowing will be displayed on the map below as they are “completed” and an entry will appear in the accordion panels on this page. Clicking on either the route or the entry will open the corresponding post in a new tab. Posts are created from material that the participating clubs and storytellers send us and should give you a feeling for the different legs. We hope you enjoy following our progress as we circumnavigate Scotland virtually!
