Messing about on the River


Its fair to say that Brian pulled it out of the bag this weekend. With metal rods and mesh in pieces in the boat house on Saturday afternoon, we had our doubts but the man is truly a miracle worker. With only one slight hitch when the ramp collapsed, crews were launched with military precision.

Less can be said of the rowers however after the senior men's boat's riggers were found to be carefully stored away back at the clubhouse and the women's novice 8 launched late with 6 oars, a borrowed life jacket and no cox box.

All crews seemed to enjoy themselves and we got on the telly, radio, interweb and paper thanks to Caroline!
