Cowes Row Sunday NOTE REVISED CREW LIST AND FOOD ORDERING SYSTEM

This post was updated on .
The weather looks a bit marginal (westerly wind F4/5) but at least it is likely to be dry. A decision will be made on Saturday and exact times announced then, but assume we will be out all day.
We only have trailer space for four boats so we will be taking both Claydons, the Celtic Longboat and a galley.
Sadly, this restricts numbers to 23 (only 5 in Sweare Deep). Normally it would be first come first serve but obviously drivers need places and I need to ensure a good number of strong rowers, so I am sorry if anyone has lost out- next year, perhaps!
The crews are as follows:
Skippers:
Gladys - Me
Mabel - Sue L
Sweare Deep - Tim
Galley - Michael

Boat Towers:
Mike
Phil
Rachel
Nigel

Crew:
John D
Lesley
Pete
Maureen
Al
Mo
Keith`
Marion
Ron
Cheryl
James
Karen
Claire
Alison B
Marilyn

Wendy and Stephen
Sorry Chris, did mean to tell you before today but we (Stephen and Wendy) are not able to come on the Cowes row now. We have a new puppy and could not leave him all day and to be honest I don't think we are up to it! Sorry again for short notice 😔

Sorry to do this at such late notice, but I will have to bail, as I am recovering from a bad cold and feel it may be too much too soon!!

Food on Sunday
Geoff Probert of Henley Whalers has arranged for the Fountain in Cowes to feed us once again. He writes:

Whalers and Cutters,

The outing on Sunday is still uncertain due to wind forecasts.  These have been changing and so the decision to proceed or abandon may be taken very late.
We are due to have lunch at the Fountain Inn in Cowes as in recent previous outings.
Due to the uncertainty they have asked that we pre-order from a short menu.  This way they can quickly and easily serve us and minimise wastage if we have to cancel.

If you are due to come on the Icebreaker outing please have a look at the menu choices (attached) and follow this link and answer the questions NOW so that I may inform the Fountain Inn of choices.

Cheers
Geoff

Here is the menu:
Sunday Roast Menu
For Pre-Order for
Sunday 9th January 2022
All of our roasts are served with fresh seasonal
vegetables, a Yorkshire pudding, crispy rosemary & garlic
roast potatoes, mash and lashings of gravy
Roast Sirloin of Beef £11.99
Served pink, with sausage meat stuffing
Roast Turkey £10.99
With sausage meat stuffing and a pig in blanket
Pork Loin £10.99

Mushroom & Stilton Wellington £9.79 V

Yorkshire pudding with a Pig in Blanket £1.99
Yorksire Pudding £1.00 V
Mash Potato £1.50 V

As Geoff says, the forecast is a bit marginal with all sites predicting a steady F4 westerly which is fine but gusting to F5 or 6 which would cause problems as it will be blowing right onto the slipway. Watch this space!

Hi Chris

Looking forward to the Cowes row but I'm afraid Maureen can't make it.
I did send an email but I guess it didn't get through to you.
sorry
Pete
