Equipment repair update:

The Helen T. is now in rowing condition, as odd as that may sound since
it is a 1989 vintage. All bolts, washers, spacers and wing nuts are in
place. We rowed her this evening and she is good to go.

The red peinert single shoe is now repaired. One of the screws and
washers were missing which holds the shoe to the foot stretcher, so the
shoe was being held on by only one screw. Rowers, please do not let the
equipment get to this point before repair. Replacing the screw and washer
is quick and easy. Spare hardware can be found in the small tool box.
Please take time to make the repair yourself before venturing out on the
water. A boat should not be rowed if it is not sea worthy...repair and
then row.

The RRC slings are still out of the house, but will return shortly (I
promise). We will inform everyone when they make their reappearance.

Thanks.
