Leaving the harbour.....

........after the gig boats had said 'hello' to the shanty singers, they left to continue their training session. Gig racing is a hugely popular sport here in Cornwall and almost every coastal town or village boasts several teams.......and all are hugely competitive.....Thank you for your kind comments and FAV's and for putting my yesterdays pic on PP....much appreciated....

I like the color version! It portrays cheerful company better than a black and white photo!

[Pat Knowles]

Amazing boats, look at the length of them!
