The GRC winning tradition in Eights Heads continued this weekend, with three eights wins - the WRes 2, M Open and W Novice prizes all fell to our crews.
GRC picked up 3 wins and some good experience at the Inverness 4s and Small boats heads. We had crews racing in 3 of the weekend's four divisions, though only the Women's Novice squad were there on day 1.
Great rowing weather - bright and sunny and calm - helped
make it an enjoyable day for all. Also contributing to the
general bonhomie was the extensive and varied selection of
cakes on offer in the tearoom.
Malcolm has an extensive album of pictures from both divisions.
