Once the dust had settled after Christmas it was Frosty Fish time. The 28th of December was a very cold day but dry and we had a good turnout yet again. Eight boats in total were sent down the river on the short timed course to the “Pill Box” and back, off Borth y Gest. The winning boat, following a stewards enquiry into a couple of “ringers”, finished in a time of 14 minutes and 38 seconds. A big well done to Geoff, Robert, Sally and Will and a very special thank you to the coxes, Ceinwen and Dr John, who braved the cold to steer the boats and offer a little encouragement. A very warming stew was rustled up by Manon and Sarah which thawed us all out nicely !
Many new rowers were welcomed at this event and hopefully we might even see some of them again, including our commodore who put up a good fight.
