Description
The ladies Gig Rowing Team of Falmouth head out to train between the working boats Winnie and Grace during the Falmouth Oyster Festival on the south coast of Cornwall.
The Falmouth working boats go hand in hand with the oyster fishing industry that has taken place in and around the River Fal for hundreds of years. Native oysters grow freely in the shallow waters of the upper reaches of the Carrick Roads, from which they must be dredged under sail or oar between Nov 1st and March 31st.
