A fantastic sunny day with the Boat Building Academy where students of the class of March 2014 launch their boats for the first time in the harbour of Lyme Regis. The boats included a traditional clinker Thames Skiff, stitch and glued outboard-powered Broome runabout, glued clinker Beg Meil design gaff-rigged dinghy and a glued clinker Fleet Trow. The Mayor of Lyme Regis Sally Holman and Director of the Academy Tim Gedge both said a few words before the boats were launched. As always it was fabulous to see everyone and all the dogs that are such a great part of the day.
