Tough conditions make it difficult at Mayflower FISA Regatta
In terrible conditions a number of crews braved the elements to row around Plymouth Sound and the 2010 FISA World Championship course. The women tested the water and rowed outside the breakwater, but having decided that 10ft waves were a little difficult to row in, the men rowed inside the breakwater. Something the women wouldnt let the men forget on the day!
