Festivals of the Sea Held in Edinburgh
Royal Yacht Britannia arriving in Leith Docks as its final resting place, a boating festival at Newhaven Harbour and the Festival of Sea held in Leith Docks with displays. Once Scotland was famed as a seafaring nation. Boats and craft of all types have travelled all over the world from these destinations. Scotland was famed for its shipbuilding, its seamanship and fishing, but like most ports worldwide, Scotland has had to change with the progression of time.
The Cutty Sark Tall Ships Races at Leith Docks in Edinburgh in 1995
In 1995 Edinburgh was host to the Cutty Sark Tall Ships Races. These images have been taken from the video which I was using at that time for making documentaries. I have taken some of these images and created a picture gallery for those who may not be able to play the video.
