The Crew Cut

Since launching Crewroom 20 years ago I have, on occasion, been required to navigate a steady course through some choppy waters when global economic challenges threaten the normal flow of business. However, the recent outbreak of Covid-19 is unprecedented and is unlike anything we have ever experienced. Therefore, in these unsettling times, I wanted to contact you personally.

This weekend marks International Women’s Day – a global day of celebration acknowledging the great social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. It’s also a call to action for accelerating women's equality.

This week we were really fortunate to chat to Channel 4’s SAS: Who Dares Wins finalist, and old friend of Crewroom, Carla Devlin #15.

Essential TV viewing has returned to our screens this January with Channel 4’s latest season of SAS: Who Dares Wins, where 25 recruits are pushed to their limits in a gruelling recreation of the SAS selection process.

On 21 February, The Muscat Marathon will take place with thousands of competitors from over 56 countries taking on the 42.2km route through Oman’s premier lifestyle destination.

On Saturday November 23rd, 480 crews will take to the water in an annual processional race on the tideway. With staggered starts the coxed fours, coxless fours and quadruple sculls are timed along the 4 1⁄4-mile (6.8 km) Championship Course from Mortlake to Putney in a race that attracts both senior and junior crews from clubs, universities and schools.
