Sir Ed a welcome guest, always a pleasure to see you guys chatting
I've coxd an 8 three times the last two times it was really dark which made it somewhat difficult to stay on course. Our club practices from 5:30pm to about 7:00pm. But only three more practices left in the season.
In a head race, definitely critical to have clearly in mind what route you think is the fastest, based on maps, tide, wind, advice, practice, etc. Unfortunately, when you are catching another boat there is a strong temptation to just follow their steering. Unless you think they know the course better than you do, resist and stick to your route.

Indeed Paul! Sometimes the heat of the moment is too much!
Thanks for answering the request. Great video and advice.
Very helpful!
Steer during your recovery phase, as steering during the pull-phase isn't efficent and will slow the boat down massively!

We have always been taught to steer in the drive if we had to choose! More because of balance than anything!
If rowing doesn't work out for Ed he could have a career as a Shakespearian actor!
Hi, Cameron, this video helps me a lot. Can you share how a crew decides who sits where (especially in a four-person without cox)? Thank you.

It really varies where each person sits, generally it is a combination of the coaches opinion, preference and ability of the athletes!

@@CameronBuchan thank you for the reply. I'm currently writing a story about a rowing crew (despite not a rower myself) and will go back to your videos for research :) Also, I noticed that from your december trials video and the race with cambridge that you row on the starboard side, is there a specific reason for that?
Off topic question. I notice you do a lot of stroking in your pair combinations, with boats typically rigged up for strokeside stern seats, do you have to keep changing the riggers, or do Leander have the luxury of dedicated bowside stern seat boats?.. if you get my drift.

There aren't enough pairs for the amount of people so yes we do have to switch them around but once we are in set combinations for trials we generally stick to the same boats!
I had the joy of steering a coxless double (scull) without the rudder cables attached to the feet. Any advice on steering a boat without a rudder?

Similar ideas to using a toe. Communication helps alot too if you need some help from the other person!
