World Rowing Masters Newsflash

 Flooding in the Czech Republic is receding fast and access roads to the rowing course which were blocked by water, mud and sand are now almost cleared.   Damaged roads and bridges are being repaired quickly.   The rowing course has always been secure and remains so.

The Regatta Organisation’s website server disappeared last week under several metres of water but the website is now on a new server and is expected to be available today with full details of the draw. Please go to: www.racicemasters2002.cz

Final preparation is well under way and, although a lot of additional work is required as a result of the flooding, the conditions for an excellent FISA World Masters Regatta are in place. Your sympathetic understanding and support for the courage and resourcefullness of the Czech Organisers is much appreciated.
