[CUCBC Captains] Rowing between Jesus Lock and Chesterton Foot Bridge

[Conor Burgess]

Dear all,

In light of some incidents earlier this week, the CUCBC Exec would like to remind all Captains, LBCs and Coxes of Rule 12 and the relevant penalty for breaking it:

http://www.cucbc.org/handbook/rules/restrictions#rules_restrictions_upstream_pressure <http://www.cucbc.org/handbook/rules/restrictions#rules_restrictions_upstream_pressure> 
12) 	a) That there be only light-pressure paddling between Chesterton footbridge and Jesus Lock except for the progress of the Fairbairn Cup Races, and for bung starts during the two days prior to the Lent and May Bumps.
	b) That crews pay due care and attention to moored craft and to junior & novice crews in this area.
	c) That crews should avoid unnecessary stopping and spinning above Chesterton.

http://www.cucbc.org/handbook/rules/penalties <http://www.cucbc.org/handbook/rules/penalties>
Firm pressure above Chesterton (except when allowed as defined by Rule 12.a <http://www.cucbc.org/handbook/rules/restrictions#rules_restrictions_upstream_pressure>). Crews attempting starts, half- or proper full pressure receive a £25 fine for the first offence, £50 for a second time in one term, and a one week training ban (including any races) for third offence.

Please also be considerate to other crews when doing practice starts on the Long Reach, and try to minimise the time spent stationary before a start.

Conor
