If your in a boat and its sinking. you stay in it. Its is more dangoures to get out of the boat. Cus then your risking others lifes too. And the boat doesnt sink that fast. so they would be fine. Im a coxswain. And im glad this hasnt happened to me. i feel bad for those it did happen to
Oh hey, me too! Youth 8's womens. I didn't see any collisions, but my whole boat did almost get hypothermia. brrrr.... Collisions like that one you saw unfortunately aren't unusual in HOCR... our river is so twisted and the bridges are SO inconvenient, it's really easy to crash. It's a coxswains race, for sure.
Yep. there was a collision earlier in the race, and they got a crack in their boat. But there's a sharp turn at this bridge and when the coxswain used the rudder it split the seam and sank it.
I would like to warn Chinese students who are currently studying at Peking Uni & who might want to do postgrad studies at the University of Dundee in Scotland, UK, to THINK TWICE. The staff at the University of Dundee are deeply racist towards Chinese students, in particular, and the city of Dundee has seen several attacks against Chinese (and other colored) students in the past few years. Also, the academic standing of this university is low & Chinese students should not consider coming here.
The Charles is a lot cleaner now. No more dead fish found on the shore line. lol I remember when it was filthy nasty years ago when I was growing up in Boston. Dead fish were all over the place.
Actually the Charles River Swimming Club one mile swim race just had their second annual event, last June. The water is getting cleaner and cleaner. Pretty soon you'll be able to drink from it.

Let me guess, your a rower. Man grow some fuckin balls and play a real sport. Like I said the sport itself sucks, so getting into a situation like that REALLY SUCKS. EMBARRASSING.
@devilorgod i don't know if you know this, but your argument is really really stupid, not to mention nonexistent. care to name some reasons why you don't like rowing? or have you not yet evolved past the reasoning skills of a chimp?
The Cox and the boat both are/were MIT's. It is actually a good thing they got out of the boat. The oars are a certified flotation device. However they will either keep a water logged boat a float or a person each, not both. I pains me to see HOC officials have no clue what to do.. They have 2 boats of officials there.. one should be in front of the underpass waving off on coming shells until the submerged boat was pulled out of the way.

MIT going too fucking slow that why. They should move out of the fucking way. What fuck is wrong with the coxswain? They should look out for thing like this. What a bunch of dumbass. Are anyone surprised that the Chinese and MIT both had women as coxswain? NEVER ALLOW WOMAN TO BE A cox!
Another team didn't hit them in the bow, they rammed someone's stern...clearly the Peking coxswain's fault. However it is really terrible that they sank in the place where they did. That course is hard enough to navigate under the bridges as it is...but throw an abandoned underwater 8 into the mix....in the middle of the course....that really sucks. I feel bad for the crews who followed, which had to weigh enough.
Gosh you people really do not know what happened do you? Well here is what happened they they had gotten hit by another team in the bow, which that blow had cracked the bow, but the piece snapped back into place. Then it came open again once they rounded the turn that you can see in the above video at the top in the beginning where boats are coming from. And that is all I can think of to say at the moment to you people.
Common sense of the coxswain???? This is the same coxswain who just decided that running into another boat was a good idea! How fast the crew was is debatable, but the fact that her actions spoiled the regatta for a number of crews is not debatable.
They were indeed quite fast, but not well coxed. They hit another boat (mine) badly enough to turn it perpendicular to the course and crack their own bow, but the coxswain says that such things happen "all the time." Not so.
They didn't make fools of themselves. Those that saw them rowing know they were moving fast! I'd like to see their split times, which have not been released.
The cool bravery and plain common sense of the cox in this incident is impressive. Had she abandoned the boat as the rowers did, it would have been invisible for the following 8's.
What a pitty. They flew all the way over, borrowed a boat, and made a fool out of themselves. I believe I was in a portapotty at the moment, would have been great to see it live and record it. THANKS FOR SHARING!
