The club attended Falmouth Regatta 2018 held on Sunday 18th August 2018 and came away with
Two 1sts, Five 2nds, One 3rd
After a hour delay the highlights of the day are:
- Strong sculling performance by Ross Bennett. Ross went on to win the race by a clear 2-3 lengths over his nearest competitor from Totnes.
- Our young girls Cassie, Tilly, Nell and Hazel had a hard fight with Totnes up until the last 300m where they pulled away to claim the win and their WEARA championship.
- Nell and Tilly followed up with a gutsy fight against Exeter to claim 2nd place in the double sculls.
- Libbie claimed a 2nd behind Castledore in the SB 1x, claiming valuable points towards the championship.
- Jon Lamont was back in a boat racing almost 12 months after a blockage was found in his brain. Luis teamed up with Jon to take 2nd in the MSC 2x behind Falmouth.
