St Neots Regatta 2018

The 28th and 29th July saw a number of crews from Huntingdon battle the elements at St Neots regatta. Unfortunately the regatta weekend coincided with the only stormy weather of the summer so far.  Luckily not too much rain fell so the spectators weren’t too bad but the wind was extremely strong making it very difficult for the rowers and there were a number of incidents on the course. Luckily all of our crews crossed the line without incident.  On the Saturday, Josh won his semi in the Op1x and was only beaten by the smallest of margins in the final.  

Sunday’s racing saw the op 4x- of Josh, Tom, Gatley and Oscar go one better than Saturday and after some tough racing in both their semi and the final they secured a win.    Also racing were Suvid, Gwilym, Alec, Rosie, Abigail, Emily, Ellie Nicholls and Lou in the role of cox. Well done to all of you for giving it your best shot in very difficult conditions. Thanks also to Neil for towing the trailer.
