Well that’s a wrap on Carrum.
Some great wins and some really close racing.
We’re now head-down and bum up preparing for States.

I am sure I saw the 4 horseman of the Apocalypse at Albert Park yesterday. That water was WILD!
So congrats to our mixed Masters quad, our Male Masters double and our mixed masters double for their wins yesterday.
And 👊🏻 to the rest of our crews who said their Hail Mary’s, headed out and put in a good show for the 🔴⚪️🔵.

Couldn’t ask for a better day for the 2026 Footscray Saltwater Regatta!

More entries this year, sunshine, regatta merch and the bar is now open.

Thanks to all the city and country clubs that came and supported our event. You make the day!

What a great day for the red white and blue in some fairly hectic conditions at State Champs in Ballarat.

Some early photos (more to come!) starting with our silver medal winning sisters in the Female C Grade double (Alice and Kath) and an action shot of Nick and Levi as they charged down the course.
We had a gold medal win for our Men’s B double (Jeremy and Nathan). Congrats to our medal winners, the club is stoked for you and so proud.

And a huge congrats to our Coach Jeff Walker for his RV Coach of the Year award presented to day.

Well done to all our coxes, coaches and crews rowing today - tough conditions and you all did us proud.

Look at all that medal potential!
Unfortunately due to the Ottway fires and smoke, the Barwon regatta was cancelled.

Hey have you considered moving the regatta season to Winter? No heat, no flies, no wind and no fires. We think it could be a thing!

A fantastic, successful and bloody long day at the Henley on Maribyrnong sprint regatta. Great job by our neighbours up the river - - for hosting.

Once again, wonderful to see newer FCRC rowers and crews having a go. Some great wins and close finishes for the 🔴⚪️🔵.
For our members and friends, here’s a sample of .drive photos (major thanks!).
Onwards to in January!

Sunday was a day of celebrations at - firstly remembering and celebrating life member Peter Bright, who passed away in 2023 and our annual President’s Cup intra club race.
