Short bit from BBC Scotland News today on the Scottish Coastal Rowing Association's St Ayles skiffs:

The boats are supplied as kits, building them is generally a community effort and masses of folk in coastal communities are enjoying the concept of the sea being something you go out on with friends, rather than just being something to look at!

Selkie the Seil Skiff is nearly ready for launch, just another couple of coats of paint:

We are having an open day/regatta/ceilidh 1st/2nd June. So far three other skiffs have promised to come and race.

Is that the skiff that is also known as "50 shades of Grey"? Should be interesting when you are paired with the "Portsoy Quines"
