Another stake boat race in Paris
Posted on January 30th, 2009 by bladesrelease
How can you not love Danish rowing god Adrian T? He posts on the GLRF ALL OARS message board and he submits events for the GLRF calendar. His latest event entry came in yesterday for the 2009 Tournoi de Paris Rower’s Stake Boat Race. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term, a stake boat race is a relay down and back around a stake or marker. The French call it un régate au piquet. The race structure will follow a timed format for a 3,000 meter distance. Boats will race along a 1,500 meter course, turn around a buoy at the end of the basin and race back to the starting line. We set up a forum in the Calendar section of the ALL OARS message board so that GLRF members can chat about the event.
