Today has been a gorgeously sunny day here on St Mary’s. The seas are flat and the racing has been fantastic. The ladies long race was first, after a morning of sorting the boats out and soaking up the atmosphere. Both crews had a strong row, with the A crew coming through into group H and the B crew in group I. The men then went out, with the men’s A having an amazing row, coming through into group D – fantastic, and the B in group L.
Round two came quickly after, with the weather holding and the seas just as beautifully flat. The ladies B were up first, doing us proud with a strong row and coming 8th in their heat. Then it was the A’s who had a storming row, winning their heat by a full boat length!
The men are rowing now….so more later…
