St Agnes Gig

Gig racing is a very important part of life here in Cornwall and the teams are very competitive. St Agnes Gig Club have now joined the Portreath Harbour Association and they've brought a gig over so that they can launch here and do their training. Tonight was their first session and they soon found out how steep our slipway is ...

The gig was launched eventually ...

and they climbed aboard and set off working their way between the moored boats ...

Good luck to them for the race season but of course I hope Portreath beat them!!
