  • Crews warming up must stop and approach inside turns slowly when other crews are racing on the outside lane.
  • Coxswains should review maps, video's, and content under the Rules tab to take crew on the safest course to prevent penalties.
  • Crews should row as a full boat up to the start; this is not a time for drills.
  • Coaches should inform the Regatta Director (Mairead) and the Dock Master about hot seating situations with athletes or a shell.
