City of Cambridge Rowing Club

13/04/2026

‘Dutch Wizard’ was christened today as our new men’s VIII+, in the honour and presence of the actual Dutch Wizard who gave so much of his time and expertise to the club. His magic touch, good spirits, and dry humour have helped the Performance squads go fast and use their glutes — so it was a no brainer when the opportunity came to pool together to name this boat. Though you may no longer live in the country Vince, you are, how you say, always with us 💙💛♥️

Rachael — a lush boat for a lush woman.

Today our new women’s coxless four was named in memory of Rachael Ancliffe, who coached the junior squad at City for many years, rowed with the COWs, and was a joyful presence on the Cam. She was a strong believer in giving it all for the team. She is very missed. Her husband Phil and the Ancliffe family, who were City juniors, were there, as well as many of their rowing peers.

Her memory lives on as we take out this new sleek boat.
