The Great Lake Race - FoLM

Our fifth annual Great Lake Race was another great success recently! The weather was warm and sunny as thirty-five boats, of every shape and size, set sail across the lake for the distant shore. Large and small, with sails, floats and even balloons, the boats were amazing and must have brought a lot of enjoyment to those involved in making them. Led by Jonny Garlick, our team of marshalls launched the boats into the water safely, with Scott and Grant assisting from a rowing boat, one of the remaining popular old boats once on hire from the boathouse.

The winning boat belonged to Dylon Wright, seen here receiving his prize from our Chairman Charles Novis. His simple catamaran simply sped across the water, ahead of everyone else.
