Peel’s bracing itself for an influx of Vikings today (Saturday) as a traditional event celebrates its half-century.
The town’s Viking longboat races take place in Peel Bay from 10am this morning, with free entertainment in the town for spectators and participants.
Around 80 teams are set to battle it out behind the oars.
Organiser Jimmy Lee says the teams are from a wide range of organisations, from companies to groups of pals:
Peel commissioner claims transparency concerns being "shut down"
Katryna Baptist claims decisions "missing" from official records alongside communication and conflict concerns
Fire fighters respond to numerous issues across the Island
Safety advice is now being issued to residents
MNFU calls for stronger legislation to protect livestock
Farmers continuing to face threat of dog attacks
