Good Afternoon -

Plant High School will be hosting the 12th Annual Halloween Regatta on
October 29th.  Held at the Bypass Canal in Tampa, this head race is a
great warm up for Hooch and very novice friendly.  We will have both
youth sweep and youth sculling events as well as a masters 8+ and
masters 4+ event.  Registration will be through Regatta Central this
year.

I'll send out the Regatta Central link with an order of events later
this month.  Please contact me if you have any questions.

Hope to see you there!

Hi Coach:

I'm Chelsea. I'm a coxswain entering her senior year at college, and I coach at
my junior rowing program during the summer.

I started a blog about coaching coxswains. I want to give rowing coaches
efficient, effective strategies to get inside coxswains' heads and make them
awesome. It's tailored especially for coaches who started out as rowers and who
don't have experience being an actual coxswain.

The blog is at www.coachingthecox.com. I'm contacting a group of high school
coaches from the northwestern region to join my group of testers. I'd love to
hear your feedback about the articles. I'd also like to hear any questions you
want me to address in future articles.

You can e-mail me back at this address; I respond to every single e-mail. You
can even subscribe to the blog and get each article sent directly to your
e-mail. The signup is at the top of the sidebar on the right side of the page.

Thanks so much for your time. I hope you like the blog, and I look forward to
your feedback and questions.

Sincerely,
Chelsea

I have copied all of FSRA to avoid repeat questions while addressing Plant Crew
questions.

FSRA has renewed its regatta insurance program as a benefit for member
organizations. To be part of the program, the hosting organization must be a
current member of FSRA which Plant Crew is. The second and last step is to
determine the type of event each is. There is no limit to the number of FSRA
scrimmages (Dual, Tri, and Quad meets between member teams). As with the US
Rowing Insurance, these are automatically covered and do not need to be listed.
They can be listed to peace of mind and documentation purposes. Unlike US
Rowing, the FSRA policy does include quad meets in this category. For larger
events, such as the Halloween Regatta, that may also include non-FSRA
competitors (masters, etc.) there is a limit of 20 and these do need to be
listed. Currently 2 slots are already taken for the Florida Sprint League race
and the FSRA State Championship leaving 18 spots on a first come, first serve
basis. Last season we did not reach the policy capacity.

More details including online waiver sign-ups and full policy documentation can
be found on the FSRA site map at:
http://www.floridarowing.org/insurance.html

FSRA insured regattas provide the same or higher levels of coverage than the US
Rowing insurance program and it does not require US Rowing membership.

Additionally FSRA and NOARA are working with Regatta Central to provide waiver
verification system similar to US Rowing verification. This should be completed
for the fall races and will be in place for the spring races.

Thanks, Brice

Dan & Brice -

Below is a question from my board about the regatta insurance coverage
offered through FSRA.  Not sure who to send it along to.  We want to
make sure we are budgeting correctly for Halloween regatta and any
quad meets we have.  There was some confusion last year if we needed
to pick up USRowing insurance for some of our March races at the
bypass canal.  We are currently planning four meets at the bypass,
including the head race we host in the fall.  We would love to fit
these under FSRA's umbrella if possible.

Thanks,

Michael Moseley

Mike,

When you're at the meeting will you find out if FSRA plans to purchase the
regatta insurance again this year and, if so, what are the requirements
and/or limitations for participation.

There was some confusion last year because the FSRA website said that the
coverage was for 20 regattas as listed on the website.  Some of our regattas
were not listed.  Matt then called Jeb Rumbough (Mariner Insurance) who said
that all regattas between FSRA members were covered.  I think the confusion
was that the policy said that it was estimated that there would be 20
covered regattas and that was what was presented on the FSRA website.

The US Rowing policy automatically covers dual and tri meets of members.  It
does not extend to quad meets or larger regattas.  We had a quad meet in
March so we needed it covered by the FSRA policy.  Also, the Halloween
Regatta was covered by FSRA last year.

Any information you can get at the meeting would be great.  Please feel free
to call me if you need any clarification.

Thanks!

Apologies in advance is this is the second or third time you've received this.

I am looking to buy between 1 and 3 Concept 2 erg slides. If anyone is looking
to clear inventory for their club and would be interested in making a sale,
please let me know.

Thank you much, and good luck to everyone with the start of your seasons.

Hey Everyone,

 

Hope your fall is going great.....

 

I'm putting my Hudson Pair/Double on the market, Ive retired from Coaching after a Decade and Im not getting down to the boathouse enough to make good use of the hull or to keep it maintained in the future as well as I have so far(it's been stored indoors all its life,rowed in Freshwater and washed regularly).

 

This is a great hull that our rowers have loved to compete in, It's a heavyweight 2007 and its in great shape inside and out(CCR's men borrowed the hull and placed Second at Youth Champs in 2010!).  I'm selling it for $5500 (obo), if you wanted to purchase it pre-owned from Hudson it would be $7500:

 

You can compare here....I want to save you $2000 off the manufacturer(not to mention delivery costs)!

http://www.hudsonboatworks.com/?p=hudsonclassified&state=displayClassified&classifiedID=248

 

Car Rack parts and Steering parts included with purchase....this is a great hull in great shape that is very versatile and can be a great value for your program as two boats in one!

Available for pick up at the Lake Brantley Boathouse or I can help arrange delivery at a Regatta.

 

Email me back, I can send more pics and discuss the boat anytime!

 

Thanks

To all Teams -

A reminder about the FSRA insurance information:
http://www.floridarowing.org/insurance.html

This page lists all regattas currently covered for 2011-2012.  Please
email me if you have a regatta that you want to add.

There is a new username/password combination to check your team's
waivers on the NOARA site:

http://www.noara.org/fl-group/

(the username and password are case sensitive)

Please do not contact NOARA with any questions about waivers and
insurance as the FSRA waiver is for FSRA use and NOARA will not be
able to answer your questions.
