Dear Captains,<div><br></div><div>As CNR approaches and your novices get practising racing starts, I'm sure you're more worried about the first boats getting some training done on the Saturday. Fortunately, we are continuing last year's practice and providing row-throughs. We will be allowing up to 4 boats to row downstream with each division by prior arrangement. Any boats coming back upstream will simply have to wait for the end of the current division before following the last race up. To arrange a row-through:</div>
<div><br></div><div>1) Decide approximately what time during the regatta (14:00 to 16:00 Thursday and Friday, 07:30 to 16:30 Saturday) you want to pass Chesterton</div><div>2) Email me at this address telling me your college, what boat will be rowing-through and the time</div>
<div>3) I will allocate the slots for each division on a first come, first served basis</div><div>4) Once the timetable for racing is finalised (expected to be a week before the Regatta) I will email all concerned to confirm the exact time of the row-through</div>
<div><br></div><div>I have already had several requests so don't delay. Please stick to the timings we agree and follow the marshal's instructions. If you are more than 10 minutes late or have not arranged a row-through we will try to fit you in but reserve the right to refuse you passage.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Jonny Waite</div><div>CNR Senior Umpire</div>
