October 31th - Tail of the Merrimack - Page 4

All good things have to come to an end and so it is with fall crew. But what an end! A costume day on the river with 5 races and 12 boats. We had 3 heats plus A & B finals on full buoyed course. A taste of spring racing. The boats were mixed ability and mixed sex. They were selected ahead of time to allow boat fancy dress. We had ghosts, crabs and unicorn to name a few. Much fun was had by all. The racing trophy winners were the Crabs. They also won the best spirit and the best costume went to the Unicorns.
