Favorite Crew Memory:

Augusta Invitational Regatta – Flipping our 4+ at the dock and taking eight hours to get home.

S.I.R.A – Watching Tracey Ure?? fall out of one of the 15 passenger vans, roll down the hill and land behind Duke’s Trailer with at least a 12-pack of empty beer cans chasing him.

S.I.R.A – Impromptu bathroom break for women along the side of a mountain. The sight of these women climbing a 60 degree incline in an attempt to find cover and drop trou was hilarious – I may still have pictures of the guilty.
