Documents
Useful notes
- Race control is at Queens boathouse, upstairs. We're open from 7:45 for numbers.
- Divisions 1 and 2 have a large number of VIII's - to ensure a prompt start, it will help if the crews can make some attempt to come up the reach in reverse order.
- The overtaking rule is going to be "cede the racing line to the faster crew".
- The start marshall will endeavour to be flexible about the start order, particularly at the tail of the divisions, either at crews requests or as seems suitable to them.
Entries are closed
Entries closed on Tuesday (yes, really they did, honest. Unless you're very very nice to me.Provisional draw on Wednesday. After the howls of outrage, the final draw will be available on Thursday. So far, everyone has got the division they want unless I've specifically told them otherwise.
