James took a trailer of smaller boats up to Bedford yesterday to race through the many bridges there. The format of the event, with multiple divisions over a relatively short course, allowed for lots of doubling up and the girls will have known the bridges well by the end of the day.

Congratulations to the Women’s Masters D4x of Caroline, Anna, Kat and Jo - who won their Veterans' Head pennant last weekend by just over one second from long term rivals Eton Excelsior.

The other 4x and the 4- also finished in fast times and confirmed this year’s squad is making very good progress.Sunday saw a large turn out of club Masters crews in the oldies race, with Rebecca and Katy racing again, this time with Claire and Tina (friend from Boston) to easily win WB4x. The WD4x of Caroline, Anna, Kat and Jo G also won [...]
