It was great fun to be involved in the Pilot Cutter Review and World Championships again. Last year Esther sdailed on Agnes whilst we followed the fleet with Polbream.
This year Esther was invited to photograph the fleet from a RIB with the race officers. Ken managed to hitch a lift aboard Agnes for the Sunday afternoon race.
It was a beautiful sunny day with a stiff breeze. Esther got some terrific photos and Ken ended up in a great shot featured in Classic Boat magazine!
It was wonderful to see these amazing vessels sailing in the bay, some of the Bristol cutters are over one hundred years old. Agnes is one of half a dozen Scillies Pilot Cutter replicas built by Luke Powell at Gweek.
