Shanklin R. C. Looking to borrow/hire a River Pair.

Shanklin Rowing Club have asked if any club can loan/ hire out to us a river pair until March. One of their Junior Ladies has been told to train in it after GB trials last week but they dont have one - although they have one on order - but this is not being delivered until March but her next assessment is in Feb. They are more than happy to pay a fee and insure the boat. Contact Lesley Walters on 07840 755229 if you can help.
