Woolston Regatta 7th June
At
Woolston Regatta the Club continued its
good start to the season with two wins
in the fours events.
Last
years Southcoast Championship winning
Senior Four of Ben Ade, Mike Jenner,
Matt Allsopp and Ian Hayden with Bryony
Reeve as cox,
racing together again in a Coastal boat
for the first time since that triumph
proved they are still a force to be
reckoned with, winning in a very close
race against a crew from Itchen
Imperial.

Milford Regatta 31st May
Following
the disappointment of the cancelled
Island Regatta's the Hants & Dorset ARA
Coastal season finally got under way
last weekend with the regatta at Milford
on Sea hosted by Lymington Rowing Club.
It was a
reasonably successful day for the
Wightlink sponsored Ryde Rowing Club
with three wins recorded.
The
surprise win came in the men's Senior
Pairs, not an event the Club has
traditionally been very successful in,
where Ben Ade and Ian Hayden were
comfortable winners. Ian Hayden then
produced another fine performance in the
Men's Junior Sculls winning this event
with Ben Ade finishing in 4th place.
