Building an
Island crew for
Little Britain
The construction industry’s
prestigious regatta is second only
in size to Cowes Week. A recordbreaking 250 boats took part this
year, yet not one could boast an allIslander crew. At the last minute,
though, a group got themselves
together to fly the Wight flag.
