Scenes from The King's Cup Regatta

Today would have been a good day to be in Cowes on the Isle of Wight  to watch the King's Cup Regatta.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge took part in the race - eight sailboats racing representing their charities.


Bear Gryllis won the race.  He was the skipper of Tusk.  The Duke of Cambridge's Child Bereavement sailboat came in third and the Duchess of Cambridge's Royal Foundation came in dead last.  The sailboat was disqualified after the start of the second race.  The Duchess received a large wooden spoon as the last place finisher.

The race took place in the Solent.

Prince George and Princess Charlotte of Cambridge and their maternal grandparents, Michael and Carole Middleton, were on board another ship to watch the race.
