This<br>course helps the club maintain<br>standards and levels of safety.<br>The CIO was able to maintain<br>consistent weekly rowing sessions for<br>social rowers to enjoy the<br>opportunity of training on the water.<br>These were held 2x a week in Winter<br>(Saturdays  and  Sundays)  and  3x  a<br>week in Summer (Wednesday,<br>Saturday and Sunday).<br>The  CIO  had  a  very  good  years<br>entering all the Coastal Rowing<br>League  regattas  in  the  region,  the<br>British<br>Rowing<br>Ofshore<br>Championships  held  in  Jersey  and<br>Masters Championships Henley.<br>The  club  successfully  raised  enough<br>money to buy a new racing double.<br>This has been a huge benft to those<br>members who have represented the<br>club at competition level.|





The  remaining  fleet  of  boats  have been maintained for those members who social row. The CIO continues to be fully affiliated with British Rowing and West  of  England  Amateur  Rowing Association (WEARA). Affiliation to these associations also facilitate access to best practice and guidance documents to ensure that standards  are  enforced  and  being maintained. We continue to benefit from the expertise of one of our members who is an ex- international rowing coach, through seminars and on water coaching. One  of the biggest  achievements  of the club was to host the clubs inaugural  regatta.  This  was  the  first coastal rowing regatta to be held in Cornwall. The event was a huge success for the club and local businesses. It was held at  a  local  Yacht  club  and  attracted 100  competitors  and  visitors  to  the Cornwall. The event was hailed as one of  the  best  regattas  in  the  Coastal Rowing  League.   New  relationships have been forged with the local businesses who look forward to welcoming us back in 2025. The club benefitted by being supported by almost all its members, family, friends and locals. The positive atmosphere within the club, following the regatta,  created an environment where members where keen to continue to support club activities. The positive energy will be channeled into improving the club facilities. Our aim is to replace our old dilapidated container  with a  new container with an area that can be used to socialize off the water.
