2011 Lightweight Weighing-In Instructions.
- Weighing-In stations for Lightweight competitors will be available at: Vesta RC office (crews boating at Putney end) and Chiswick Pier House (crews boating at either Hammersmith or further up-river) on race day between 9:30am and 10:30am. The organisers will endeavour to have test-weighing available from 9:20am.
- For the HOR4s, the maximum individual weight is Men 75kg, Women 61.5kg. Although there is no crew average weight, all crew members are requested to weigh-in at the same time.
- Competitors must weigh in wearing their racing kit (ie all-in-one / shorts & shirt). Anyone failing to wear suitable attire may be refused weigh-in.
- Crews where one or more competitors fail to report for weighing, or fails to be within the maximum individual weight by 10:30am may still race but for Time Only. There will be no change to their start position.
- Lightweight competitors are requested to arrive as a crew to be weighed, and are requested to bring their valid BR racing license with photo as the preferred form of ID. Crew photos may also be taken at weighing-in for traceability to subsequent racing crew.
- The official at the weighing station will have crew lists valid at the time of close of entries; any crew changes on the day must be made at Chiswick Pier in accordance with the Rules 25 and 26 as applicable. (Neither weighing station may be used to submit late crew changes. )
- Any crews withdrawing from weighing-in are kindly requested to send a representative of the crew to one of the weigh-in stations (Chiswick Pier or Vesta) to avoid umpires waiting for a no-show
