More, this weekend on the Charles

On saturday, Winthrop Yacht Club will be visiting Newton Yacht Club with several boats, some quite large.  Newton will be giving them a heads up about this weekend's events but rowers should expect power boaters with less familiarity of the river, and should use caution at all bridges but especially

• the BU Bridge where powerboats must use the Boston most arch in both directions.
• Weeks Bridge, where powerboats must use the center arch and the large ones must line themselves up on the arch giving them no room to maneuver.  visibility is limited as well
• Arsenal Bridge where the Watertown arch is stanrdard for both upstream and downstream travel.

Boats may be returning saturday nite or sunday, so keep your eyes open.
