You may have seen Christine Spreiter, the official Cruise photographer, speeding past you taking pictures from her RIB Chaser during the Cruise. A selection of her images are available on the Cruise website to give a flavour of this year’s Cruise. However, Christine has far more pictures than we can show on the website, so if you wish to view more of her images or to purchase photography or see the full selection of images of your boat and crew please contact Christine after the cruise.  - see www.classicmaltspics.com

Special guest at this year’s Talisker ceilidh was ocean adventurer Pete Goss, who had the audience of yachtsmen and women enthralled during his “Talisker Tales” in aid of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). Pete, who was joined by the Coxswain of the Portree Lifeboat, recounted his own seafaring rescue adventures, both being rescued and being the rescuer, over a glass of Talisker single malt.

Once again the Cruise will feature a “roving nose” onboard the yacht Spray of Wight.
