Hi all,

Thanks very much to everyone who updated their contact details and confirmed by email. Fortunately, Dan (our Senior Treasurer, but more relevantly in this case also our webmaster) has managed to convince Google that CUCBC is not a business, and as such it looks like we should be able to continue using the Google Mail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, etc. in the way that we currently do without incurring completely unsustainable fees.

However, your efforts are not in vain, as we would have been nagging you to update the details on the CUCBC website at the start of Michaelmas anyway. For anyone who hasn?t done so already, you now have a few extra months to get it all up to date (but if you don?t do it now, will you do it at all? :)).

I hope you enjoy the rest of the summer vacation.

Best wishes,
Conor

Subject: [CUCBC Captains] An Invitation to attend Cambridge Autumn Regatta
 Sunday Sept 11
Message-ID: <CACRKd4ASK_TMgR-mo9LB0ubU4P28X32aS8TubOQjkRLbpqXdGw@mail.gmail.com>

 Dear Rowing Friends,

We hope this email finds you well and enjoying your well deserved break.

We are writing to invite you to the Cambridge Autumn Regatta on Sunday 11th
September 2022. The regatta is hosted by Cambridge ?99 RC and is the only
British Rowing regatta on the River Cam. Racing will be held over 550 m
downstream from a stake-boat start from the Railway bridge to Ditton
Corner. Any event will run if we can get competition for it.

The regatta site, in Ditton Meadows, is located outside the city centre
with easy access from the A14. Boat rental for the day will be available by
prior arrangement. In addition to racing, there will be a good variety of
food, drink and kit stands available.

Entries close on BROE at 10 PM on Friday 2nd September. If you need help
entering because you don't know your race secretary, let us know and we can
arrange an entry. For more information and the regatta poster, please visit
our website here: https://www.cambridge99.org/autumn-regatta

If you have any questions,  please do not hesitate to contact us at:
regatta at cambridge99.org
If you would like to enter an 8 as a CRA entry, please contact us so that
we can establish interest in this event.

We look forward to seeing you on the day.

Subject: [CUCBC Captains] Weed, powered vessels, and overtaking

Hi all,

* Captains please forward to your clubs *

Due to the very large amount of weed in the Cam, powered vessels are being forced to use the middle of the river to avoid entangling their propellers. As such, they may be more difficult to overtake. However, please remind all of your crews and small boats (and in particular the latter) not to overtake on the ?inside? (meaning overtaking between the boat and the bank it should be nearest to).

This is because by doing so, you place that vessel in a very difficult situation should there be another boat coming the other way whereby they are both obliged to move out of the way of that boat and to avoid colliding with you. Instead, you should always overtake on the ?wrong? side of the river, asking the powered vessel if it is clear to come by if you are unable to make that assessment yourself (they almost certainly have a better view than you do, and they should be able to temporarily move closer to the bank they should be nearest to to give you more room to overtake safely).

Thanks,
Conor

Subject: [CUCBC Captains] Early Morning Noise

Hi all,

* Captains please pass this message on to all of your coxes *

We?ve had some complaints about noise before 07:30 in the morning.?Please remember that you must keep coxing calls to the absolute minimum required to navigate safely above the Railway Bridge, and that the cox box volume should be as low as possible, whilst still ensuring that everyone can hear the cox. Additionally, coaching from the bank is not permitted above the Railway Bridge before 07:30.

Thank you for your cooperation on this - it?s important that we remain considerate and respectful of other river users and nearby residents, so as not to give the council any reason to step in with a much more heavy handed approach!

Thanks,
Conor
