ROWING ADVICE

Considerations when heading out to row:

While the coach is ultimately responsible and has final say at practice, we expect all our rowers to be aware, alert and responsible.

River Current: consider rowing upstream first – if any problems, its easier to get back with the current.

Bridge: avoid the need to navigate the bridge (twice) for inexperienced crews, or for anyone when the current is a little faster – this is an accident waiting to happen - people and boats.

Ensure everyone has a lifejacket on board, boat has a whistle, someone has a phone.

Crews, keep within 500 meters of the coach boat, ensure a visual sight line of other crews and the coach!
