THE organisers of the Oban Sea Kayak Race have presented a cheque to the Oban lifeboat and its crew members for £2,000.
The cash comes from the proceeds of this year’s race, which took place on Saturday August 26. This takes the total donated to the Oban lifeboat from this event since its first race in 2010 to more than £16,000.
Oban Sea Kayak Race organisers would especially like to thank the following safety boat cover for the event, without which, the event could not take place: Neil Matheson, Dr Erik Jespersen, Struan and Cameron Smith of Coastal Connection and Donna Barr in the Kilbowie Outdoor Centre boat.
