Peridot Press are pleased to announce the publication of a new book on the historic Loch Long One Design classic racing keelboat. Twenty-five years after Loch Longs: The First Fifty Years was published, Jamie Bruce Lockhart brings the story up-to-date, concentrating on the links between the Clyde and the Alde that developed during the last quarter-century. While the book includes records of Class Champions and Commodores and lists every one of the 130 Loch Longs still in existence, their owners and builders, it is not a chronological history. Rather, it is a series of essays by someone who sails, owns and above all loves Loch Longs; it is a view from the inside.
