Held over the first bank holiday weekend in May, the annual pilgrimage of gig rowers travelled to the Isles of Scilly for the 15th World Championship event. 2 of our own gigs, Buller and Rose of Cadgwith joined another 90 or so gigs (ours, now one of the heaviest!).

Some lovely pics from Katie Smith and others here. Ps there are more pictures on the mugshots page
