Loch Broom has a third St Ayles Skiff

The launch of Loki, the St Ayles Skiff built by members of the Loch Broom Sailing Club, means Ulla and Coigach Lass now have some local competition, which they clearly relish.
Loki is immediately recognisable by the dramatic and rather lovely bird  figurehead, although it is unclear what it has to do with Loki, the Norse shape-shifting god who is recorded as assuming the appearance of a fly, a salmon, a seal and a mare - versatile, but not birds.
Thanks to Chris Perkins for the pictures.

Surely a welcome addition to the Loch Broom 'fleet'. Best luck to all.
