Submitted by Washington College Rowing Staff. Distance: 4500m Conditions: 15mph gusty headwind with very choppy water for the first 2500m causing most boats to take on water. Conditions worsened through the racing. Women's boats were started first from slowest to fastest followed by the men's eights. Comments: St Mary's College Women's Eight was assessed a 1:00 buoy violation penalty which is reflected in their reported time. Washington College Women's Eight broke a backstay at 750m and raced the rest of the course with 7 rowers. Thanks to Catholic and St Mary's for coming out and providing such great racing!
