Dear all, The results of today’s racing are available here: http://www.cucbc.org/mays
*Notes from the Umpires* - Practise starts at the Plough should follow normal navigation - i.e. you should cross at the Plough and do your start on the towpath side. This is important as we often have other river traffic heading upstream between divisions. - After bumping, coxes please take a moment to consider where you will clear to. - Take a look behind you to see which side chasing crews are on - Be decisive, once you've picked where you're going, give clear instructions to achieve it as quickly as possible - Clear to the most suitable part of the bank - this may not be the closest part of the bank - sometimes it is worth going a bit further to get to a safer position, especially if you have space behind you. - Clearing on top of another crew is very rarely that most suitable part of the bank - A cox has been disqualified and a penalty bump awarded against their crew for rowing into a stationary boat at race pace. This is an extremely dangerous thing to do and will be santioned accordingly. - Once you have cleared, please keep your boat (and blades) under control, and do not allow your bows or stern to drift into the racing line. - Follow normal navigation when rowing home. - Spectators may not run alongside racing crews - anyone doing so will be counted as an extra cycling bank party and lead to fines for excessive bank party. - An iSolem white bike light has been handed in at control, please collect by Saturday if it is yours. *Fines* - ARU M1 - Hitting a stationary crew - £75 - ARU M1 - Hitting a stationary crew - Penalty bump awarded - ARU M1 - Hitting a stationary crew - Cox removed from river for the rest of the week - Christ's - Failure to provide a marshal - £15 - Christ's W2 - Incompetent clearing - £50 - Clare M4 - Failure to clear - £25 - Corpus Christi - Failure to provide a marshal - £15 - Corpus Christi M3 - Pink socks, Maggie red shirts, and black shorts - wash it all together and hope it turns Corpus red - Emmanuel W2 - Early celebration - £20 - First & Third - Failure to provide a marshal - £15 - Fitzwilliam M2 - Stern drifting into racing line after clearing - warning - Girton M2 - Slow to concede - £20 - Jesus - Failure to provide a marshal - £15 - Jesus M1 - Obstructing an umpire - £20 - Jesus M3 - Dangerous coxing, clipping stationary crew with blade - £30 - Lady Margaret - Failure to provide a marshal - £15 - M5 Division - Failure to row in club colours - International rules on matching, official club kit apply tomorrow - M5, W4 and M4 Divisions - Repeated Checkmates (sirens) - provide new batteries for the sirens tomorrow (four D cells per megaphone please) - Pembroke W1 - Dropped bung, no advantage - £15 - Selwyn M2 - Illegal standing start - £20 - Queens' W4 - Failure to row on upon being bumped - £15 - Trinity Hall W2 - Late to marshalling - £10 - Trinity Hall M4 - Negligent practise start on row home, almost resulting in collision - £15 - Trinity Hall W4 - Late to hold it up - £20 - Wolfson M2 - Early celebration - £20 - Wolfson M2 - Late to hold it up - £20 All fines can be appealed by e-mailing Dan Wilkins, CUCBC Senior Treasurer ( seniortreasu...@cucbc.org), within 48 hours of this email being sent.
