race1
Today was the 'Round the Island' race, which can be sailed either clockwise or anticlockwise.
Because the tide is not high enough the boats have to be carried across The Strood. There are volunteers to assist with this.
The boat on the left is taking the anticlockwise route and crosses The Strood with a clockwise crew on the right.
