"FIRST ARRIVALS"

First of the 250 boat Commonwealth Games Flotilla arriving at Princes Dock Glasgow
this afternoon.

Over 10,000 people lined the banks of the river Clyde to see the largest flotilla of boats ever to arrive in Glasgow.

Around 1,900 sailors manned the fleet which made its way from Port Glasgow, led by the CalMac ferry Lochinvar.

The Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Scotland, which organised the 19 nautical mile journey, estimated around 10,000 spectators attended both of its official spectator sites at the Beacon Arts Centre and the Riverside Museum.
