The CUCBC Committee From izzy at cucbc.org Wed Oct 10 13:40:41 2018 From: izzy at cucbc.org (Isabel Nimmo) Date: Wed, 10 Oct 2018 14:40:41 +0100 Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] Lights, fog and darkness Message-ID: Dear Captains, Contacts and Coxes, This is a gentle reminder that CUCBC crews on the water within 15 minutes of Lighting Up or Down must have static white lights fitted to the bow and stern of their boat. (And the lights have to be switched on, and they have to have charged batteries...) I appreciate it's early in term, and that many clubs may well have removed their lights since last time they needed them in February, but it does make a significant difference to visibility in the early morning and with the number of crews on the water, it's actually a real help to coxes trying to avoid unnecessary collisions. This is doubly true if (as with this morning) there's a significant amount of fog on the water for the first part of outings. Please do take a few minutes over the next few days to check your equipment is mounted so it can be seen, and that it still works. Many thanks, Isabel (Designated CUCBC Grump of the Day - thanks everyone else on the committee...) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Outlook: Still yellow, sorry! Forward visibility is poor, and given how busy the mornings are versus how much experience novice coxes have at steering this early I term, getting tangled up would seem inevitable.

The CUCBC Committee From ecm53 at cam.ac.uk Wed Oct 31 14:21:24 2018 From: ecm53 at cam.ac.uk (E.C. Marr) Date: Wed, 31 Oct 2018 14:21:24 +0000 Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] CCBC training day! Message-ID: Dear all, Christ's College Boat Club are going to have a training day away from the Cam on Sunday 4th November. In order to complete our fleet of boats, we need two more senior rowers (one male and one female) and a cox. In greater detail, we'll be heading to the Peterborough rowing lake to make the most of a quiet, straight stretch of water. We'll benefit from fantastic coaching and a queue-free lake. It promises to be a great day out for the club (and for you!). We leave Cambridge on a coach at 7am and return around 5pm. If you would be interested in joining us, please get in touch!
