Farewell to Puffin

Published 00:31 on 2 Oct 2025

This September it was the last taster row in the gig Puffin. Puffin was generously loaned to us by the Cornish Pilot Gig Association for the past two years.

She has been an important part of our journey, without this opportunity we would not have been able to establish our rowing section. We will be sad to see her go, but it's time for her to return to Cornwall where another club will benefit from her.

We are fortunate to now have two other gigs available to us. However, Seahorse arrived without a full set of oars. We are currently seeking sponsorship for two more oars so that we can complete an order and get her fully equipped.

If you or someone you know might like to support us, please get in touch at gigrowing@bhyc.org.uk
