Summary
With our cameraman aboard Sir Thomas Lipton’s famous yacht "Shamrock" at Plymouth Royal Regatta. The gun boomed and we’re off! Rounding the mark boat. "White Heather" becalmed but we luckily catch a cap full of wind. WE crowd on the canvas ... but the King’s yacht "Britannia" just beat us on the finishing line.
