SCOTLAND'S top baker Sir Boyd Tunnock led a charity fundraiser off Gourock that really took the biscuit.

Boyd, 88, sailed down the Clyde on Monday at the head of a spectacular flotilla of more than 200 vessels in aid of lifeboat charity the RNLI.

Boyd, a sailor for nearly 60 years, said: “The flotilla has been a dream of mine for more than 10 years and I'm delighted to see it coming to fruition."

The spectacle was organised by the largest sailing club in Scotland, the Clyde Cruising Club - Boyd has been a member for 50 years.

More than £10,000 has already been raised.

The flotilla departed from three muster points, at Helensburgh, Kip Marina and Gourock, before Boyd led a salute to the RNLI at 2pm.
