Head of the Gorge Regatta
The rowers entered their first regatta of the year at Head of the Gorge in Victoria. The head race is 5km long with lots of turns, bridges and a huge battle with the rising tide creating some eddies that are very difficult to maneuver in. All crews managed their courses with ease and produced some outstanding results to start the year off. The men’s 4X (Dylan M., Robert B., Forrest W., Saeed N.) placed 3rd overall in a very competitive event. The women’s 2X (Anna L. and Samantha R.) placed 7th with the first 5 being University age. The men’s 2X (Brandon H. and Ben H.) finished a respectable 9th with many club crews in their event.
