English National Schools' sinkage

[supermanwannabe2]

I go to Newark rowing club down the road or river as it were and we have a stretch of river what turns like that in the high winds

[TheJwh96]

I enjoyed the coxswain paddling

[the0sharkster]

I lifeguarded this!



[kingcurry1909]

GO SHIPLAKE!!!!

[srsly101]

looks like great fun :D

[benizamzing]

hahahahahaha typical nottingham

[christophersanton]

You will have noticed that not all boats sank. The ones that didn't had sufficient buoyancy to support the crew

[8grimsby8]

MAYBE IT THIER CREWS DID SWEAT RUNS THEY WOULD NOT SINK LMFAO

[Guitarman0]

I raced there yesterday and what I though was bad weather is nothing compared to that! haha :D

[Guitarman0]

@RichyJames95 at the start yesterday I was in a quad in lane 1 and even though we had both 2 and 3 tapping with 1 and 2s blades we still managed to get blown 90 degrees lol

[utube44333]

lol at the coxswain

[bigleague25]

What is that retarded coxswain doing at 2:27

[edbowassrdon]

I was pissed off that our race was canceled... was hilarious though.

[94james94]

haha. i hate rowing in choppy water.

i love seeing boats tip though lol.

i have never ever seen a boat start sinking like that before..

this scares me now because i row bow in the eight! :O

[hellsbells056]

Hahahaha, BMS SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 you suck. balls. Anyway, if you were in a resolute in that race, you would have sunk too :D.

[hellsbells056]

@nzekulman Yeah well, just bad luck I suppose ;)

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 Sorry for the abuse mate :P.

[hellsbells056]

@nzekulman Haha, don't worry about it, I only say that because of you are my rivals, :)

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 Ahh that would be why :P. Which school do you go to? See you on saturday anyway :)

[hellsbells056]

@nzekulman Awh, I won't be there :( I am not racing, I am at Star Regatta, in a single though, are you racing at that? :)

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 Yes i will be, in a coxed four probably, we got to the semis at bedford but it was a quick crew so we're doing it there :).

[hellsbells056]

@nzekulman Nice, I am at Bedford if you are interested, novice single sculls ahaha. What school are you at? :)

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 You're at Bedford School? Or one of the clubs? And I'm BMS :P. I didn't race at Star btw, we didn't get entered because of seat racing for Henley. I'm always out in a single though haha.

[hellsbells056]

@nzekulman Yeah, I am at Bedford School, but I hope that we are cool :) Nice, I was in my single today, the wind made it absolutely awful though, it was terrible haha. What year?

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 Sure we are cool :). I'm J17, and you?

[hellsbells056]

@nzekulman J16, but I have been training in a single for ages, I am at the Quarts Sprint. Haha, who are you anyway? :)

[nzekulman]

@hellsbells056 I'm Luke Gledhill, and you? Add me on fb, then we don't have to come on youtube to talk haha :L.

[LP4EVER2K9]

I sunk a coastal quad at Folkestone for the South Coast Championships

[Gummslayer]

HAHAHAHA, how the hell do u sink an 8?

hahHAHAHA.

[yellk0489]

you have clearly never rowed in nottingham in shit weather conditions.

they were going to make it a private airport, but deemed it to windy, so made its a water course instead...

[Gummslayer]

hahahaha nice .

but its a straight bloody course how cud u eff up like that

lololol.

[789crazygal987]

I've seen photos of them sinking and they effed up because the waves were above there heads, its not there fault so shut up because you obviously don't know what you're talking about

[willsnoel100]

@yellk0489 i coxed a 8 yesterday at the Hoover event and the weather was so bad and we got passed by like 3 boats cuz my rowers kinda suck dick

[Trumple]

Ha ha ha, the problem was the speakers were pointed out towards the crowd, so as loud as it sounds for us, the people in the boats could not hear it...

[NicoECvK]

that was one of the best days I've spent rowing, ever!!!

[SriLankanMonkey]

Vespoli is American...

[FHCentral]

Wow, thats ridiculous. I can't believe they had them race with the water like that! It was kind of funny at the end though, "Stop Racing. Stop Racing."

=]

[MythAndLegend87]

My cousin was in one of those boats!

God knows which one though!

[jackmh41]

really was not fun - we went down first and got hit by Oratory. If you want to see the reactions of the other guys involved, go to talkrowing and search for NSR 2008

[wigganegg]

i think i can hear me shouting "stop". our marquee was directly left of this video. Our poor first 8 was the one that kingston rowed into.

[stupidone0]

The race is abandoned. Stop racing.

[R3mor5e]

A windy day if i rember :P

[OneTrueLloyd]

1:04 i'm in the 4 seat in the black boat. Luckily we managed to finish the race but it has to have been the most fun i have ever had in a regatta

[TristanVassallo]

i go to kingston lol

[humbugtheman]

omg, so lucky to get us J14s in.. phew

[charliebk]

sanp to lamatrot three below,

i was bow man and we had to bail water out of the actually out of the hatchs because the boats was totally full, the only reason we stayed afloat was becsue we have an extra non openble hatch,

i had to squeeze water out of my all-in-one,

the marshalls didnt come until about 5 minutes later, and noticed tht on the day to, why was it vespoli, oh the guy in the video answered it, there italian hahaha

[crunch957]

oh my life was this 2008 ! the wheather gets worse and worse each time i go to nottingham!

[wigganegg]

yeah, bedford modern, my school sank. they have a resolute. its good. it sank because, to save weight it dosnt have any air tanks, so when water flows in,thats pretty much it. and kgs are morons because they crashed into it so now its all scrached up and snapped.

[lamatrot]

I'd hate to be the bow man that day lol

[tommcilroy2]

oops wrong thing lol

[tommcilroy2]

is someone poor??

[dan81892]

does anyone know about the re-schedule at dorney or something ??

class vid though

[acaseward]

well there you go, apparently vespolis are italian, moron.

[andr21]

great video

great fun XD

took 8 people to get our quad out cos of so much water.

[pethiec11]

Second event I've been at at Nottingham this year that's been cancelled... Was fun though!

[gingeypoo]

Were all three 8s that sank vespos????

Same thing happened to Brock U at Head of the Trent (CAN) 2 years ago.

[jonnyboy455]

No im pretty sure bedford modern - the second school were in a resolute.

[swiissy]

I am pretty sure three boats did sink...I filmed it

[10aimee01]

as if 3 boats sank in 1 race, i race ma self so glad we dint race this ear at nottingham sure te weather was worse !!! lol x

[jackyt89]

Mate, shiplake 8 made it all the way the the finish underwater, for the last 150 meters1

[Afromole]

[PhilHaggis]

[CheeseIndustries]

[pinkbanana5]

[ollybon]

[teenagefreak175]

[Egoradze]

re race on the 7th june at dorney but only top boats so the mite join all the 8s together or something

[alexansraa]

Its going to be all races which did not race and any races which were abandoned

[tomod1234]

are u sure is dorney i heard it was at dorney then i heard it was at nottingham

do u no where it says?

[bowside07]

Its being re raced at Dorney Lakes in Eton in 2 weeks time, but its not at all the same thing.

[tomod1234]

Aparently the event is being re raced in 2 weeks at nottingham x

[tomod1234]

that was a fun day

[Egoradze]

the kingston crew look buff

[willsmason]

woah did they get the boats out?

[Gazzmundo]

No, they just left them in there...

(They got the crew out first - priorities.)

[G0ld13]

That was the most fun race I have ever rowed! =)

[rupert362]

that was the most fun rowing i have ever done. I was in the first crew shown in the video and we managed to survive to the finish line!!!

[nospamforme99]

Will that be "English" sinkage, because if the crew had been Scottish then their boat would have had to have been bouyant?

But seriously, someone could have been seriously injured or killed. WHat if that Kingston eight had hit someone in the water? What if it had been your crew mate?

Pester your coaches relentlesly for fully bouyant boats. Search for "Leo Blockley" on Google and read it. Then make a comment.

[AJC79]

Just so you know, Vespolis are NOT italian. They are American.

[the1great1turd]

XD was there preparing 2 race but sadly didnt get 2 watch. we wer beggin our coach 2 let us row just 2 sink :P

[Trumple]

!!!! no we wernet :P much....nottingham was raves...i know where im going for uni

[NootyNoo]

heehee man that was a jokes day!

[jackmh41]

damn...not enough footage of us (The first crew that went under)

[iworkforthesystem]

good video anyway!

[looplupe94]

Thankyou.

[tardmonster]

[joebigpumpkin]

Thank you so much for adding this - was bowman of canford 8. Was the most fun iv ever had in a rowing 8 - period.
