As I type the build-a-boat competition ins underway. Equipped only with one sheet of ply, a few screws, one tube of glue and a few other bits and bobs, each team has to build a craft capable of navigating a course on the sea with one crew member onboard.
Two teams turned up additionally equipped with a case of Stella, some potent looking cider and a sack load of enthusiasm (though seemingly little understanding of the art of Naval Architecture).
Nick Harris' creation is looking good.
And Team Brian & George are creating an optimistic design once again.
The sea trials take pace at about 4.30 this afternoon so make sure you come down to watch...it generally provides a few laughs!
Naturally both our Lifeboats will be launching to provide whatever assistance may be required!
