Jenna Marshall and Scott Loosemore winners of the ladies race,

Jack Johnson and Glen Carmichael with trophy for the fastest heat. Hard work to win, long work to make.

Sponsored by Bob Ross in remembrance of his father Tam, a cobbel boat builder for salmon fishing on the River Tay. It was built plank by plank, each part soldered in place. As a silversmith it was very testing but there you have it totally to scale.
