| 4th Apr '05 | New boats | by ALC |
| We now have a selection of new boats to squeeze into the boathouse. A new Lola coxless IV replaces Mary Gwyneth who sadly met her end at the end of Peterborough rowing lake 2 years ago. A new 'elite' novice VIII has arrived to help ease the strain on Peter Brandt and Titan during novice term. In addition, we also now have a coastal IV, which will be of immense value in the coaching of novices; it is a wide stable boat but will give novices much of the usual benefit of outings in IVs. It will also be useful for seniors during technical outings. Both boats are made by Burgashell. The coastal IV will probably even get used to take FaT across the channel as part of the Cambridge Channel Challenge organised by LMBC! (3 replies...) | ||

All you need to do is go to our webshop and then click through to the retailer's website and make your purchase.

| 29th Mar '05 | Blue boat win for Alla | by mcp |
| Congratulations to First and Third oarsman Alla Doubrovina who beat Oxford by 2 1/3 lengths at the Henley varsity races on Saturday. Alla, who noviced at Trinity in 2002, rowed at bow in the women's Blue boat. Alex Summers, president of the men's lightweights club, was the other FaT oarsman in the weekend's races against Oxford. Alex, rowing at 2, sadly suffered his third consecutive defeat with CULRC. A full report of the Henley races, where all the races against Oxford apart from the men's heavyweights take place, is available on the Rowing Service, here | ||
