The Regatta and Ceilidh on 1st June was a great success with visiting boats from Portobello and Mid-Argyll. On the day we were well supported with RIBs by Alastair, Alasdair and Paul. We had good weather and had lots of people rowing. Our boat 'Selkie' was rowed to Ellenabeich and back to Clachan Seil. The Ceilidh raised £480 and we would like to thank the Seil Choir, Emily and Graeme for their singing.
Booking the boat and training to take the boat out can be arranged on the website www.seilskiff.org.uk . Sue Fenton is training people to row and cox or to take the boat out with their own crews. We have received funding for a trailer and hope to take the boat to Ullapool for the World Championships in July 8-14th.
Anyone who would like to row should let us know. We are keen to get as many people rowing as possible. Kilmelford will have a skiff ready soon and Oban plans to build one.
