Viking Longboat Races

posted 24 Jul 2004 by Dan Karran [permalink] Today I visited the annual Viking Longboat Races in Peel, having not been for many years - in fact I'm not sure if I've ever been before at all. I've added a few photos to my new Peel Viking Longboat Races gallery. The weather wasn't the best for the event, though I did manage to escape before the rain set in! I was also hoping to visit the World Tin Bath Championships in Castletown which was also taking place today, but I resorted to plan B - a warm drink - when the weather set in. Maybe next year.
