Midweek Row Weds 7 March

[Andy Mac]

Hi Frances & Mark

Unfortunately, I have to work tomorrow but wish you all a good row.

Just one point and a simple heads up!!!

We rowed the Celtic Long Boat back along the North Channel from Emsworth a couple of weeks ago and it appears to sit lower and deeper in the water at the stern, than the Galleys or Claydons.

We came back exactly at the time of HW on a 3.6 neap tide and there was no room at all for error.

I see that tomorrow's tide is predicted at being a 3.9 for Northney which only gives you a touch more water than we had.

Just a thought, as she clearly draws more than the other boats.

Wishing you all a super row.

Best
Andy

She does Andrew and needs a good bit more water than the Galleys and Claydons do along that channel.
