Coastal Rowing Boats - St Peter Port Harbour - Guernsey 2013 - Part 7
Quite a site of the St Peter Port Harbour Coastal Rowing Club
fleet in 2013. So many interesting designs. It makes a
nice change seeing these rowing boats left out in the open like
sailing dinghies with their covers and trolley's/ Road trailers.
Much nicer than carrying the Olympic type rowing boats that
have to be put in sheds. These Coastal rowing boats do look nicer.
