Sneaky extra row - Wed 5 April at 10:30

[Mark Taylor]

We have two new people rowing with us on this row, Paul and Jane, so I am sure we will all welcome them. I have put them in 6 person boats to allow swapping in and out. Destination likely to be Emsworth for refreshment. Decision on how far down harbour we go will depend on how all are doing. Also a couple of people are rowing with injuries.

To avoid a repeat of issues around coxing reported on the last row, the Captain of each craft should only allow coxing to be undertaken by rowers who are known to be competent coxes. The crews have been selected to balance strengths and allocate sufficient coxes denoted by (c) next to the names.
