GUBC launch Regatta Season with Success at Scottish Rowing Spring Regatta
Podium Lockout tops windy weekend at Strathclyde Country Park
MOTHERWELL – With a strong wind blowing, Glasgow University Boat Club picked up a number of strong results at the first Regatta of the Season.
The highlight of the vent came in the Open Pair as GUBC crews locked out the podium finishing first, second and third in the A Final – with another placing sixth.
Other notable results include the Open Coxed Four who finished second as well as the Open Club Coxed Four who came second in their event as well.
Given the high winds, GUBC withdrew their crews from Saturday Afternoon racing, limiting opportunities for victory but will look to perform well at BUCS Regatta next weekend.
