Well,...to be fair, you "only" have to row halfway across. ( The French Coastguard will make sure you are safe to there ) Then , you`ll get a lift from the Royal Navy ?
So, do we ask all future Trialists to row the full width of the Channel ??
( And is this beginning to get a bit TOO Alf Garnet yet ? )




aye fair point DC, but did they row a rubber dinghy over from Calais to get here, maybe that would have helped them to get their fitness up, instead of as you say hitting the ground when they got here and end of story.
