[CUCBC Captains] Dangerous coxing

[Mat Bryan]

Dear All,

The number of incidents being reported as "dangerous coxing" has spiralled
this last week, especially in the familiar category of not looking out for
or paying heed to small boats.

Remember, in the event of a collision between a coxless and coxed boat, the
cox is 9 times out of 10 taken to be at fault. It is unacceptable that
coxes have completely ignored scullers after causing significant danger (or
even harm) to their boats, put simply, it is rude and not in keeping with
the image college rowing should be trying to display.

Bumps may be near at hand, but that is no excuse for dangerous behaviour in
any situation - several crews that have been reported recently have been
severely penalised.

Mat.
