Description
Mylor Gig off Flushing to watch the boat racing in Falmouth.
The Cornish Pilot Gig is a fixed seat, six-oared rowing boat, recognised as one of the first shore-based lifeboats that went to vessels in distress, with recorded rescues going back as far as the late 17th century they are now used for sport. The World Pilot Gig Championships are the biggest event of the year. Racing takes place on the waters off St. Mary's, Isles of Scilly, Cornwall.
