We are pleased to report that Wightlink Isle of Wight Ferries have agreed to renew their Sponsorship of the Club for 2020. However "In the current climate" they have had to undertake a major review of there Community: Sponsorship scheme and as a result they have offered the Club a 75% Discount as opposed to Free of Charge.

As a result the Club has had to slightly increase our Rowing Fees for 2020.

The new rates - which will apply immediately - are as follows - this is the first increase for several years - and has been kept to a minimum.
