QBC Vets in Boston, Massachusetts

Oct 17, 2024

The club’s super-veteran squad has arrived in Boston, Massachusetts for the Head of the Charles Regatta, at which they will be competing on Saturday. They are planning to get a couple of days of practice in the boat they have borrowed from Harvard University. We have reports of beautiful autumn (should that be fall?) weather with blue skies and 16-18°C by day but 5°C at night. We wish the crew good luck in their endeavours and hope their practice at negotiating tight bends pays off with a good result.
