Sun, Sea and Sand
Some photos and reports from Portobello Beach Race 2019
The weather gods smiled upon us on Sunday for the 5th Portobello Beach Race. With a slightly later than 12:30pm start determined by the tide it meant that the sun was shining well before the race got going.
With the results now posted here is a set of photos from Gillian McKelvie covering the race.
And another set from Nigel Darling: here
