RICHMOND N • When going with the stream, either on the ebb or on the flood - you must stay in the fairway. Keep to starboard of the channel at all times. LOCK • When meeting oncoming craft, keep to starboard so as to pass port to port. However, at low water a big craft may need to be in the ‘wrong’ position. If it is safe you may pass starboard to starboard, but show your intentions early. • You should always paddle according to the direction of the stream, not the tide. If you are not sure which way the stream is going, look at the buoys, bridges or moored boats. • If in doubt when the tide turns, keep to starboard. • Do not stop, turn or overtake within 75 metres of a bridge. ALWAYS KEEP A GOOD LOOKOUT • Do not stop in a crossing zone • If in doubt about any of the above always seek advice Assume that others cannot see you Neil Pickford (Cygnet RC) 2008 1 Strand on the Green sailing club UL University of London (Boathouse) TSS Tideway Scullers School SON Sons of the Thames PAR Parrs Priory CRB Crabtree 2 London Corinthian sailing club PTR Putney Town TTR Thames Tradesmen LTU Latymer Upper School IMP Imperial College DUL Dulwich College 3 Barn Elms Boathouse MAA Mortlake Anglian & Alpha EMA Emanuel School SPS St. Paul’s School TRC Thames HSB HSBC 4 Ranelagh sailing club QBC Quintin CYG Cygnet FSC Furnivall VRC Vesta KCS Kings College School 5 Hurlingham Yacht club WMN Westminster University BBL Barnes Bridge Ladies AKN Auriol Kensington WES Westminster School LRC London.
