22nd July 2007 Rowing: Aberdyfi Regatta Wind Direction: SW Wind Stength: 1-2 Surf / Sea State: Lumpy Air Temperature: teens Sea Temperature: Weather: mixed Max Speed: Distance Covered: 3 (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Borth fielded 2 crews for the aberdyfi regatta today in somewhat mixed conditions. the ladies race started on a flooding tide with a south westerly light wind making outward rowing tough but easier on the way back in using the waves to our advantage with a bit of surfing. once the water flattened back in the estuary the ladies lengthened their stroke and glided past barmouth's crew though everybody had to work at full throttle to get there. with a 3 mile course they all did really well. the weather changed in time for the mixed crew race with the wind picking up and a downpour of rain. the course was altered half way through the race due to worsening conditions leaving us slightly disadvantaged as we were in a great position for the original course. however we managed a top notch turn around the marker buoy gaining advantage over the barmouth boat just ahead of us. the mixed crew also managed to pass barmouth once the water flattened and the stroke lengthened. we did really well in both races, turning well and really stretching out on the flatter water, and keeping in there over the choppy lumpy stuff on the way out. well done everybody. looking forward to the next race - barmouth 5th august. |
