The 20th Anniversay of the World Pilot Gig Championships on the Isles of Scilly saw the most exciting weekend of racing yet for the some 119 crews that took part! With a tough winter training regime under our belts, Roseland sent over 6 crews to the Islands with high expectations! The weekend's rowing unfolded with the closest racing between crews ever witnessed in the 20 years of the Championships. The Ladies A achieved what was once thought the impossible, pipping the formidable favourites Falmouth to the post to become World Champions 2009, putting a halt to their 5 year run of success.
