Ballinskelligs Coastal Rowing Regatta 2008

Grey clouds and a heavy thick mist greeted the Killorglin Rowers as they competed in the Ballinskelligs regatta on Sunday. It was time for our coastal boat, the Wild Flower, to hit the waves and we had two crews competing in the boys under 16 and the mens senior events.

The U16 crew did very well fighting a very close battle for 2nd place but just loosing out in the end.

I wasn’t there for the other races but have heard that we came 1st in the minor boys race and in the mens senior race we finished in 3rd place.
