Come on, confess which forumite are you....or are they hiding on the Thames forum ?
Moment foul-mouthed raging boater rampages through Thames regatta

Ha that’s on my local stretch when I’m not bobbing about the SoF.

May come as no surprise but it was unregistered and ā€˜tender’ to another unregistered live aboard.

That regatta course is well sign posted and it takes some doing to be that stupid at such a slow speed!

Without taking sides.........but does the regatta have the right to close a stretch of the river ?

I refer to that level of stupidity….. the river is NOT closed, only one side (North / Middlesex) bank. He’s basically ignored the sign in the middle of the river stuck to the left coming down ( instead of the right) and ploughed through the course !

The river is not even closed for Henley regatta!
 
Not excusing the behaviour but having cruised up the Thames a few years ago we found that some rowers and their race officials were quite arrogant and rude and clearly thought that their activity took precedence over other river users. Not all of course and we are live and let live kind of people so did what we could to accommodate them but that didn’t always mean that we didn’t get shouted at! ā˜¹ļø
