Castle to Crane Boat Race, River Leven, Dumbarton

Castle to Crane Boat Race, River Leven, Dumbarton
The biggest open water rowing race to be held in Scotland. 13 miles of fierce racing from Dumbarton Castle to the Finnieston Crane in the heart of Glasgow. Quoted from 'Castle to Crane on Facebook'.

GalGael’s 30ft long Orcuan was built in 2001 to an ancient Scottish prototype. She is an interpretation of the historic galleys of the West Coast; the Birlinn, Scotland’s traditional Gaelic longboat. Quoted from the Galgael website.

A gruelling row into the heart of Glasgow... wow ! I'll bet there is some ale supped upon arrival...
I thought the 'Finnieston Crane' may be a pub.. but I see it is indeed a crane..
In any event.. I still bet there was some ale supped..!! and why not... Cheers from Dj.

Yes, the Finnieston Crane is indeed a real crane. It is the popular name for the Stobcross Crane. Thanks for your visit and comment, DJ. Cheers, Joe

That must be exhausting! Love the traditional design of the boat - she is a beauty. A terrific shot Joe, and as Jean says it is even better full screen.
