This year our race day was
14th July 2007
Buller
Day was a massive success! We had 24 boats
on the beach and in one race, 23 boats on
one start line.
There
were no major incidents which gives us the
support to do a similar size event in the
future - rather than limit it to 15 gigs.
Thank you to everyone for your help in making
this so successful! I think everyone enjoyed
the day. (I'll get the full results from Sam
to go up too)
We
raised £302 for Nathan's family on Buller
Day which I believe is going in a trust fund
for his daughter. This was through an auction
of Marea's Downings Picture of Cadgwith at
night and donations on the bar in the evening.
A
total of approx £2920 has been raised
to go towards our new gig (this is after all
expenses etc has been taken out!), thank you
to everyone who came and supported our event
and made it such a success.
Enough
info for the moment - I have more Buller Day
pics, but they're on a different camera which
is at home.

DAY 2006

& REPORT
Sadly
our own race day in the cove had to be cancelled
this year owing to a blip of south easterly
‘slop’… literally just a
few hours, but which would have made lining
up 20 gigs below the cliffs abit too dodgy,
and anyway it poured down all afternoon; not
much fun for umpires and starters. What was
gratifying was how many showed up for the
evenings’ entertainment: all the gang
from Newquay rowing club, Falmouth and even
further afield.

& REPORT
Another
great day for Buller Day 2003, the sun
came out and some exciting rowing was
to be had for all crews.
The
juniors had an especially good race winning
the under 14's, the veterans also won
their race.

You
just have to read this..
Loosing the Cox on a buoy turn! and "rowing
with French sticks" lol
This
is held every year to commemorate the
lives of two local fishermen lost at sea.
This years event was a bit unique with
the leading men in the Rose losing a cox
overboard on the last buoy turn. The Rose
however still won coxless leaving Buller
and Socoa to chase them. Well done boys.
The
womens (with a few men) wasn't quite
as exciting. Buller
lead up to the first mark but eventually
came second to the Rose. The excuses
coming from the crew in Rose included,
thanks to Mike "we may as well have
been rowing with french sticks rather
than these oars" , "they have
a lighter boat" "more men".
