The adult program has purchased a 2006 Kaschper Custom 30 double. This boat is a midweight (average rower weight up to 180 pounds). It is stored in bay 3, and will be rigged as a double sometime next week. It is wired for speedcoach, bow and stern.
It is also convertible to a pair, and we have the pair riggers and steering. It will be rigged as a pair for the benefit of our junior crew, until after Midwest Regionals on May 16-17.
This purchase also included a pair of C2 smoothies and a set of blue slings (bay 1).
OH NO! WE NEED TO NAME THIS BOAT!
The boat is black, animal names are preferred. "Panther" has already been suggested. Please email your suggestions to me, and I'll post a voting gadget with the nominations.
Bill lands a perfect docking on first try
Keeping with Bird names..Commerant is a black bird and also a bird seen on our river.
ReplyDeleteDue to technical difficulties, I can't add more candidates once voting has begun. But hold that thought until our next new boat...
ReplyDeleteCan't we get a little tougher name? Death Wish, The Punisher, Fire Storm, Cold Fusion, or something like that? :)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to seeing everyone in a month or so.
