Hello all

My last race results email... :-(

As usual we put in an absolutely huge number of entries for our regatta, including many Development crews (hope you all enjoyed it guys!) and some more 'unusual' combinations. We won (at least) 7 events, which is great when you think that almost none of them were established crews, and that we were all busy trying to run a regatta at the same time!

Given the large number of crews I haven't done commentary or photos for each race, just included the results. You can see lots of Clare's photos on our Facebook group though, and DE Photography (the guys with the van) have also put the photos that they took on their website.

For most of the 3-boat races it doesn't seem to say who came second, only who won, so any race without a winning margin given below means that there were 3 boats in the race and I don't know if our crew came second or third.
