Boathouse gets a new look
Over the past few days, the Hull Rowing Club boathouse was given a new appearance. Lead by Stuart Beards, the team of HUBC lads, Kieran Barnes, Daniel Wall, Daniel Reynolds + Mr Reynolds, Joe Edwards, Tim Sparks, Stuart Goldfinch, Tom Davies, Bernard Gammon & Jai Sharda set out to improve the boathouse. They started with the intentions of just painting the blades but finished with a vast amount of improvements. Below are the changes which have been made:
[1] The racking has been adjusted and there is now enough room for coxed fours on the top shelf. When finished in September, there will be two free racks available.
[2] The blades have been painted.
[3] Various notice boards have been introduced for HRC & HUBC
[4] The interior and exterior have been repainted.
[5] The bar area has been painted and cleared in preparation for September, where up-to-date photos and club photos will be put up.
[6] The signing in/out desk has moved to where the wellies were, along with the trestles now located by the hosepipe. The wellies are now out of the way at the back of the boathouse.
[7] The trestles have been painted
[8] The oars are due to be re-labeled for September
[9] The life jackets have moved to a new rack found by the signing out desk, so there is now no excuse for coxes not to sign out after picking up their life jacket.
[10] The launch key has gained a new kill cord and cork float.
