1st capsize of the season

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!
