Murdo Morrison, aged eight, gets a close look at some of the shellfish on show at Mallaig’s Maritime Day.
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) and the Fishermen’s Mission came up with a new winning formula for an event in Mallaig last Saturday. Similar events have been the highlight of the calendar in previous years but this is the first time the RNLI and the Fishermen’s Mission have joined forces to host the Maritime Day festival. Throughout the event, Mallaig pier was transformed. Highlights included a parade, games, memorabilia and stalls selling fresh fish, sweets and hot food. See page 14 for full report and photographs.
