10th Anniversary of the Islander

The Islander being built by Tom ChudeighWe would finally like to wish the Islander a very happy and victorious 10th Birthday. Tom Chudleigh built her locally for the islanders solely for the purpose of racing and competing against the new breed of mainland gig. The Gig Association chooses the crew to row her in The World Championship based on the performances in the first two races of the year. The Islander has won 4 World Championships, has had much success racing on the mainland, and also won in Holland over an 18 mile course.
The Islander also shares her Birthday with the Rhos from Roseland and the Rival from Fowey both built by Ralph Bird. We extend our congratulations to them also.
We would also like to welcome the Tregarthen to The Islands. She has been built mainly for training the under sixteens but will also be used for racing in the Championships. The Tregarthen will be launched at 10.30 am on Saturday.
