22 North Berwick red shirts (nearly a quarter of the club) braved the 13 mile row up the river Clyde on Saturday.  NB sent a fleet of 5 boats, some with 4 rowers, 3 rowers and 2 rowers – but all with 4 oars!  There was a total of 75 boats in the inaugural Castle to Crane race (actually, two castles, and three cranes, but let\u2019s not be picky), and the greatest gathering of St Ayles skiffs ever seen.  Amazing sights included the historic Birlinn rowed by Galgael and the dazzle camouflage skiff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The course is long, passing many landmarks and finishes in the heart of Glasgow.  After nearly two hours of hard rowing it was wonderful to hear our cox say that he could see the Armadillo and the Tall Ship.  It wasn\u2019t easy to maintain our composure and discipline when we rowed under the pipe band on the Millennium Bridge up to the finish line at Finnieston Crane.  A super way to finish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The North Berwick team did well, all boats finishing in the fastest third.  Skiff John B bagged the fastest time of the day, 1 hour 54 min, winning the St Ayles Mixed 50+ trophy, Speedwell won the coxed double scull trophy in a time of 2 hours 14 min, Blackadder came fourth in the open Women\u2019s St Ayles with a time of 2 hours 6 min and St Baldred was third in the St Ayles Mixed 50+ with 2 hours 10 min.  Zev came first (and last!) in her own category with a time of 2 hours 9 minutes.  (All times are actual, before adjustments for handicap).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An excellent write-up of the day is <\/span>here <\/a>in the SCRA web site and full results <\/span>here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We then recovered in the fabulous Clydebuilt festival atmosphere – super food, music, beer and traditional boat building exhibits.  And beer.  Did I mention beer?  That was important.  And FOOD.  Lots. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well done indeed to the organisers of the Clydebuilt festival and the Castle to Crane race, and many thanks from North Berwick to all the volunteers who made it all possible.  We\u2019ll be back… <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
