Visitor Statistics

Latest Website Visitor Statistics
click to enlarge


Another record for the month of June. Up 48% on last years June figure.
We have increased our capacity on the main website to allow more photographic content, even so we have to be careful because photo's are so memory hungry there is a limit to what can be put on. We get around this in part by reducing the size and quality of the images. We may address this by creating an on-line album in 'Flickr' or some similar hosting organisation - that's one for the future. In the meantime thank you for looking at this 'Blog' and also for visiting our main website at www.portgordonharbour.org

RAF Search & Rescue and RNLI Buckie Lifeboat

RAF Search & Rescue and RNLI Buckie Lifeboat will combine for a joint exercise on
Gala Day
Sunday 17th July 2011

click to enlarge

Join us in Portgordon for what promises to be a fantastic day for all the family

There was some disappointment last year when the joint exercise didn't take place due the the Sea King being unavailable due to an emergency, although the crew were kind enough to do a fly-by on the way back to base - The lifeboat came as planned and played it's part in what was described as the best Gala yet - we were helped by having fine weather. Lets hope for more of the same this year


Portgordon Charity Raft Race and Gala Day is organised each year by
Portgordon Community Harbour Group

Charity Raft Race

Come along and watch the fun unfold as participants try to win the £100 prize for charity

click picture to enlarge

Always a great crowd pleaser - A crew from Buckie Fire Station won last year and as a result the Firefighters Benevolent Fund was richer by £100 - will they be back to defend their title this year - you'll have to wait and see

it's not just about winning though as taking part is a way of having some fun with friends and of course there's the challenge of making a raft - just the thing to be doing on these lighter evenings

The day promises to be full of fun so make sure you bring the family along to the day when we will endeavour to provide something for all

Visitors to our main website

VISITORS to PORTGORDON
The two maps below show the locations of recent visitors to our main website

The aim is to update this on a monthly or quarterly basis

The visitor markers are in roughly the geographic area of origin

In the case of the UK there are so many visitors that it isn't possible to identify every area that visits - it would be fair to say that the UK should be considered a blanket area - about 95% of visits originate in the UK

Sites around the world indicate only the area and not the number of visits from that area - some look once others look many times

This feature may become a fixture on the website it all depends on feedback
