managed to enter crews for all the Coastal
Rowing League regattas. We also entered
crews to the British Offshore Coastal
Championships and the World Rowing
Offshore Coastal Championships, in which
we finished in the top 20 finalists.
During 2022 the overall membership
dropped to 19. This was mainly due to lack
of organisation of on water sessions. The
age range is from 17-80, with a mixture of
novices and experienced rowers.
Club members managed to get out on the
water for club sessions, at least once a
week.
There were no changes to the fleet or
premises.
The CIO continues to be fully affiliated with
British Rowing and West of England
Amateur Rowing Association (WEARA). This
has allowed us to row competitively at a
price which allows all members to take part.
We competed regularly in WEARA regattas,
regularly being placed in top positions.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against
