I have heard news of the first capsize of the year (there may be more) but this one was down to a 'clashing of blades, as an LVIS crew ** went under one of the bridges "a bit central" and met with a UWE women's 2x also "a bit central", and the 2x come of worse after deciding to fall in.
All parties appear to be unharmed - but I bet it was bloody cold this morning after a dip in the docks!
** For those of you at the Regatta, you may remember the LVIS (Las Vegas Institute of Sport) racing the CBRC men's 8 in the final - they wear the dodgy purple and yellow kit!

Competition review
Of late I have tried not to copy anything off the Slug due to the amount of grief that I received, but this I thought important enough... and it's about rowing before any one else complains
The competition review has come back with some findings (and suggestions) as to make regatta racing better....
For those of you who have been around rowing for a few years will remember the times when S4 did not exist - you went straight to S3....
It appears that they have now effectively removed the S4 level again, renamed it all and spread things out a little.
Anyhow - as you will all be involved in the new system (and some people might not know about the slug) - here is the report, and you are encouraged to make any comments you may have to your divisional rep!
