See, the Ripplemeister set a full set of sails on Sunday
Not for the feint hearted, setting a full set of sails in the harbour can only be attempted in light airs, and so it was on Sunday morning when all hands mustered aboard the Ripple. Already at sea in the Bay was the other St Ives registered lugger, Barnabus and Mount's Bay Lugger Association's very own Happy Return. See a short slideshow of the day's lugger sailing events as they unfolded here.
A super slideshow - we watched the lugger come past us and round Cudden Point. When we could we drove to Porthleven to see if we could get some shots as they passed, but all but one had gone past already. Still a lovely sight.Sue Mason - http://aroundperranuthnoe.blogspot.com
