2008  Poster 
The Sponsored Row 2008 was again a great success, with 33 boats entered, rowed by very enthusiastic and hardy crews who enjoyed excellent weather conditions although a trifle cold. Apart from one capsise (quickly ferried ashore by a safety boat) all the entrants were able to complete the course, and everyone received very appreciative applause from the large crowd of onlookers on the quay as they came ashore.

The West Mersea Lifeboat was in attendance for the race and was able to assist our safety boats in keeping a watch over the rowers. 

MLSC would like to extend a sincere thank you to all who took part and to those who assisted in the running of the event.

The estimated amount raised in 2008 was £4500

The total raised for the RNLI over the last 31 years has been over £140,000  (up to December 2008)
