Beautiful weather graced the Trawler Race this year. An annual event in the town, local, and sometimes crews from Belgium or the Netherlands, compete in a friendly race between the trawlers, following which parties and celebrations are held onshore. Funds raised go to local charities.
Some years, it is cold, I have spent more than one event freezing on the end of the breakwater, in the rain - but this year, almost tropical weather attended the event. It did seem that from the breakwater, there were fewer people viewing than last year, but I hear that it was immensely busy at the dock when the trawlers came back in!
