A pair of interesting shots from the Fife Regatta provided by ClydeNavalGazing correspondent Neil Robertson.

Steam gives way...


Caledonian Macbrayne's Loch Shira was nearly on the beach attempting to avoid the Fife yachts and their entourage 21 June 2008.

Fife Regatta

Some shots from the first day of the Fife Regatta 21 June 2008.



High winds?



The singleton in the first pic was seen hiding in the lee of Cumbrae at 19.00. She appeared quite happy with the rest in the second pic at 16:40, 19 June 2008. Maybe the hook was weak? (wind was gusting to 28 knots at Ardrossan earlier however)

A collection
