| In the interest of
safety the committee has decided that the circulation plan for night
rowing will be as follows: |
| • |
No rowing above Staines Road Bridge |
| • |
Once boated, paddle upstream past the bandstand
before turning, row down below railway bridge |
| • |
When rowing downstream, ensure that once having passed under the Railway Bridge,
turn immediately to bow side and keep close to the bank |
| • |
All crews turning downstream of the railway bridge, please proceed to the white
house below the bridge, the crossing point when coming into the landing stage,
where there is much more light to be seem whilst turning |
| • |
Night time rowing is between the church
and county stone |
| • |
Crossing back into the club will take place between
the white house (Regatta House) and railway bridge. All crews will
STOP and check before crossing (This applies both night and day,
coxed and coxless) |
| • |
Hi vis bibs to worn by bow and cox in stern loaded boats, bow and
stroke in coxless boats. This also applies to scullers |
| • |
All boats will be fitted with a working white light
front and back, "it was on when I went out isn't an excuse"
|
| • |
Lights will be fitted and operational 2 hours before “lighting
up time” |
| • |
Experienced coxes and steers persons only |
| • |
On the white board on the boathouse doors please jot down, the name
of the boat going out, who is in the crew and a contact phone number. Wipe
out the details when you return. The last crew coming back in to check that
all boats are returned, otherwise call the contact number. |
