Hello everybody

Fancy swaping your wetsuit/trapeze harness for some oars and exercise?

BYC are planning their first 14 mile rowing race around Canvey Island on Sat 3rd Sept, start at 2:15pm.

Please click on the link for full details.

I would like to get at least get a couple of crews/boats (i’m up for the exercise) for some friendly interclub rivalery.

Entry fee is £3 per person.

If anyone has knowledge of or owns a suitable rowing/skulling machine (preferably not from the gym nor 240v!)  or fancies taking part, please drop me a line.

If the link does not work, go on the BYC website for all the info.

Thanks, simon

Thank you to our Race Officers this Sunday Gordon & Martyn

Huge thanks to everyone for making the week such a success and for the unexpected, but very kind generosity shown towards Debbie Kilkelly and myself on the Friday…Thank you all!
May I please take this opportunity to apologise for the mistake with the results of the Hopper End-of-Week race (which were done in something of a hurry) and rectify them here. Tom Metcalf came 3rd, beating Alex Hadley with a determined and very fast time in his LaserRadial. Sorry for the mistake Tom and I hope we see you down at the club and on the water again soon.
Sorry also to Adele Morton and Claudia Wilmore, who were completely missed out somehow! I will put you in and ask Jeremy Sandford to post the results on the club website soon.
Thanks again to everyone for their support and energy and I hope to see you all on the water!
The Walley Cup will be re-sailed in September when the weather improves!
Rupert Snow.
