Lymington Town Sailing Club hosted their annual Bath Race at the local Sea Water Swimming Baths on Sunday afternoon.
The competition displayed some of the best baths in recent years, with the reliability of the creations meaning there was just one sinking and one capsize throughout the heats.
The competition's defending champions were absent, but their bath was in action, reaching the final under the stewardship of new crew Annabelle and Oliver.
Crowd favourites from 2015, Dan and Will, who raced last year on a Yellow Submarine, returned with a brilliant paddle boat, but a slow turning ability meant they couldn't make it past the semi-finals.
Also in the final were Going for Gold, and their massive British Flag, the Belmore Bolt and 3 Pirates and a Mermaid (who were armed with water cannons).
Highlights of the Bath Race are available in the posted video. If yourself or a family member took part in the competition and you would like to order a download or DVD copy of the event, please visit our Online Store.
