Rafts ahoy! It’s the Great Oban Bay Raft Race.

Oban Raft Race 2012,organised by Oban and Lorn Lions Club,saw 18 rafts from organisations and groups of friends around the area take to the waters of Oban Bay,with hundreds lining George Street to cheer them on.

There were some entertaining outfits,some valiant efforts to climb on the Pink Peril,a tiny bit of cheating and lots of splashing and cheering.
