We were in the 4th lane and didn't hear the start call too well so a horn would have been nice and it would have made for a tighter finish. 

Couldn't hear the start in lane 3 either, definitely bringing a spare air horn next year as I remember it being a problem last year too!

If Richmond Regatta is included in the ladder rankings, it might potentially skew it a little bit.

However, do keep in mind that the results will pretty much correct itself over the next few regattas/festivals as more data (not affected by crazy tide fluctuations/improper placements) about a team's capability comes in.  Wink

Has the Richmond results come out yet?.... or am I blind and can't find it on their website?

I *swear* that wasn't there yesterday... Maybe I should have checked it again this morning before posting? Razz

There seems to be a typo in the first heat of richmond results where Team Momentum is listed twice. By process of elimination, I'm guessing one of them is Bring Me My Brown Pants. Anyone know which is which?

Answer: neither.  They messed up on the labelling.  Here's a link to the race grid: http://www.ubcboathouse.com/documents/2009RDBFGridFINAL_000.pdf.  They don't have Brown Pants or the Auctionauts at all in the morning races and they had Blazing Paddles right after each other.

We (Ritchie Bros.) were in the first heat, lane 2 (3rd place) ... moved on to ninth heat, lane 2 (2nd place) ... then we were sent home. Brown Pants were heat 4, lane 2 (1st place) and moved on to heat 14, lane 3 (1st place), then to gold in A. Me thinks the aerodynamic uniforms provided an advantage ... hmmmm ...

They could watch, but shouldn't learn it. It's not going to be a pretty sight if it starts to be copied lol
