Well, fall has finally come to the Charles River, on the calendar and in the weather reports.  Some important tips for fall rowing:
  • Sailors are still out.  use caution in the basin. 
  • you still aren't the only rowers out there.  Keep your eyes open for other shells. 
  • lights are not optional if you are rowing anywhere near down/dusk/dark.  buy a good set and use them.  So says the Coast Guard and everyone else.
  • paint your blades.  really.  so says the State Police and everyone else.
  • As it gets colder, get a buddy.  I know, I know, the water is MUCH warmer now than in March, but you can still get into trouble pretty quickly.
  • dress in layers, bright colors are helpful to other boats looking for you.

Upcoming Events.

  • 9AM, Headless Halloween Regatta.  HOCR finish line to CRI.
  • I'm also hearing rumors of a Weld scullers regatta?  If someone could supply course and race times, it would be appreciated.  If it is an interclub thing and others are not welcome, just let us know.  It is nice to warn folks when there is an event to avoid.
