Dragon boat set for launch

A DRAGON boat raising awareness of breast cancer will be launched on the Forth tomorrow.

Paddlers for Life, a local charity, bought the vessel this week and will use it to improve the fitness and social lives of those who have battled the illness.

And it may soon be joined by a second boat if sufficient funds can be raised so members of the group can race each other.

The official launch takes place at 11am tomorrow, assuming the water at Port Edgar, South Queensferry, is calm. All are welcome to attend.
