February Sunshine

The sun was out today on the Menai Straits to give fantastic balmy and calm rowing conditions.  As a result, what must be a record 18 rowers turned out to make the most of it all.  Four boats took to the water; one of our two yoles as well as Macsen, Elen and our new (and as yet nameless) Celtic Longboat.

With an incoming tide, the flotilla headed towards Caernarfon in loose formation before congregating on the foreshore for some photos and general banter.  The row back, with a following tide was swift and easy.  With club numbers swelling and new boats, 2013 promises to be a busy and successful season.
