[CUCBC Contacts] Yellow Flag

[flag at cucbc.org]

The flag is Yellow.

Boating is restricted to University crews, first VIIIs, men's crews in the top 2 divisions of the May Bumps and women's crews in the top division of the May Bumps as well as first fours and tub pairs. Members of crews permitted to boat under a Yellow Flag may do so in fours or small boats (i.e. single and double sculls and pairs) with the express permission of the Club Captain and/or Boatman.

Outlook: Winds are high, and forecast to get worse. Expect the flag to stay yellow for most of the day.

1st boats with less experienced rowers or coxes should consider whether they want to go out as well. Permission to boat is not the same as being required to. At no point should a crew boat with either a cox or coach who is unhappy with conditions, and pressure should never be applied to individuals who feel uncomfortable with the conditions.
