From flag at cucbc.org Sat Oct 7 09:28:24 2017 From: flag at cucbc.org (flag at cucbc.org) Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2017 10:28:24 +0100 Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] Green Flag Message-ID: The flag is Green. There are no restrictions on which crews may boat. Outlook: Novice coxes should probably not go out, and should definitely not attempt the reach. Senior coxes with novice crews should spin at the P&E. Everyone else should be fine.

The CUCBC Committee From conor at cucbc.org Mon Oct 23 11:44:09 2017 From: conor at cucbc.org (Conor Burgess) Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 12:44:09 +0100 Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] Reminders Message-ID: Dear all, As the mornings are getting busier, some general reminders. Please forward to LBCs and novice coxes as appropriate. 1. Senior crews on their way downstream shortly after lighting down should be wary and prepared to meet Town Crews returning upstream. You must remain on the correct side of the river at all times. 2. No novice crews may be on the water before 07:30, or within 15 minutes of lighting down, whichever is later (so please take note on Thursday and Friday morning this week). For the purposes of this rule, you should interpret a novice crew as as one requiring assistance from the bank to proceed safely and without interruption to at least the Railway Bridge, or as any crew with more than three novices. If placing a novice cox with a senior crew, they must be able to cox the boat the the Railway Bridge safely with only pointers from the stroke seat. 3. No bank coaching before 07:30 anywhere upstream of the Railway Bridge. Please also be aware of other river users and keep noise outside the boathouses and from cox-boxes to a minimum before 07:30. 4. White lights should be displayed clearly on both the bows and stern if your boat will be on the water within the 15 minutes after lighting down or the 15 minutes prior to lighting up. 5. Lighting down is the time you can push off, NOT the time you can row past one of our EMMs. Anyone caught willfully abusing this rule will be fined heavily, and issued training bans for repeat offences. 6. A queue of boats waiting to return to the boat houses is NOT fair game for overtaking. Everything will flow much more smoothly when you join the queue.
