Crowds turned out to watch and sponsor ducks - usually well over 2000 of them - pictured here ready for the off to race from the old stone bridge in Mansbridge to Woodmill on bank holiday Monday. It's all about raising funds for Southampton Solent Lions and Swanwick Lions causes. And enjoying the spectacle, of course!
