These races are for the crews, the highlight of the sailing season and provide the sight of up to 20 barges sailing together in friendly but serious competition. The day starts with an early breakfast while the crew discuss the course and tactics.
The start is always very exciting with these large vessels being manoeuvred in close quarters trying to gain the best position. A camera is vital!
The barges anchor together after the race with crew and passengers sitting on deck reliving the near wins and misses. Refreshments are provided on board and then it's ashore for the prizegiving.
Please note, that due to safety, this is not a high participation option but is ideal for being onboard barges sailing at full throttle, with fantastic photo opportunities.
