[CUCBC Contacts] May Bumps 2017 - Wednesday Results and Notes & Fines

[Dan Wilkins]

Dear all

Many thanks to all crews for a good first day’s racing and thank you for your co-operation as we caught up on delays from early in the day.

The results from Wednesday’s racing are now available online at www.cucbc.org/mays/results <http://www.cucbc.org/mays/results>.

Notes from the Umpires
After bumping (or having been bumped) coxes should take a moment to think about where they are clearing to. Look over your shoulder for oncoming crews then decide where you can safely clear to in the time available before the next crew reaches you. If possible, please clear to the towpath side and to the outside of corners but this is not always possible. Make sure your boat and blades are clear and that racing crews can safely pass you.
Clear the river as quickly as possible. Do not celebrate (and coxes, do not allow your crew to celebrate) before you are safely pulled in the bank and at no risk of drifting back into the racing line.
When rowing home, DO NOT proceed above the Railway Bridge until you are instructed to do so. Even if there is no marshal present when you arrive, you must wait until you have been instructed you can row home to ensure that crews rowing to the start from the marshalling area can cross, unimpeded, onto the navigation.
Please make sure you arrive to marshal on time. You must be pulled in to your station in the marshalling area by the start time of the previous division (since the river will need to be clear for that division to race through). Latecomers will be fined and may not be allowed to race.
