Re: End of YRC Season 2023 - Too Soon!
Thanks for letting us know. NCR removes their docks on November 11 with the gangway scheduled for removal on Nov 9 just so folks know if they are out there.
Thanks to all for a good season despite the wacky weather! Sally

?Hello Fellow YRC Members!
Anita and I are writing to let you know that YRC 2023 rowing season officially closed. Ernie¡¯s water temp check reflects that the water is now 47 degrees, and the forecast for the next 10 days doesn't offer hope of things warming up much. This means that club boats are no longer available. Private boat owners can row of course, though we urge caution.
As we reflect on the season, one cannot help but recognize the good fortune of being able to row on such a beautiful body of water. We are also so fortunate to have another year¡¯s use of a great little boathouse that is such a great home for our boats and meeting place for all who love this incredible sport.
This year also brought surprises that impacted our ability to row - like flood waters that haven¡¯t been seen in years and even sewage. (Blick!) Sadly, it was a shorter season than usual.
This year also included the loss of a longtime YRC member, Andy Larkin. He will always be a part of the beauty and flow of the river. May he rest in peace.
Finally, we want to express gratitude and thanks to Craig who has tirelessly contributed countless hours to the club, our fleet, and all club members. Craig¡¯s skills and commitment to maintaining and repairing club boats, his willingness to helping members with their own boats, his commitment to ensuring obstacles on the river are visible to all - just to mention just a few of the many thing Craig does -improves the experience of every member of the club. Thank you Craig for your enduring commitment and invaluable contributions to YRC and its members.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon. Be well!
Peace,

To all concern: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? The Double had? some water inside it. I drilled a small stern hole, a few cups came out. I opened the small vent hole near the Stern foot-stretcher also. We will keep it like this for 2 days; then test it for leakage On The Water. It should be fine. because a huge amount entered when? fin box damaged and I think it was just? trapped.?

Yankee Rowing: Please keep the boathouse ramp free of leaves
Yankee Rowers,
If you're at the boathouse and there are leaves on the boathouse ramp, please sweep them off the ramp--they can be very slippery, especially, but not only, when they are wet. There are several brooms on the wall hooks on the right on the way to the bathrooms. It only takes a few minutes to clear them off the ramp. Thanks very much.
Best, Ernie?

Sure
Welcome to take a look and try them on!
