The fastest WinTech finisher was Cam Buchan, who placed seventh overall in a WinTech International his fastest ever trials time. Racing under the colours of St Andrew’s University, the Scotsman is building a strong domestic profile after securing victory at both the Metropolitan and Marlow Regattas in 2024 before a showing in The Diamond Challenge Sculls at Henley Royal Regatta and the Championship 1x at Head of the Charles Regtta.
A few places back in 12th was Levin Graf, who competed in a WinTech Cobra SE under the flag of Leander. Byron Richards – also racing for Leander – finished 17th in a WinTech Cobra SE before Max Bird – the former Windsor Boys Henley Royal Regatta winner turned Marlow Rowing Club oarsman – was 28th (WinTech Cobra SE). Ruben Taylor of the Windsor Boys School placed 37th (WinTech International) with Alex Knighton of Notts County Rowing Association in 39th (WinTech Cobra) and Abdelrahman Farag of Grange School in 40th. William Buckingham of Reading University placed 48th (WinTech Cobra) and Alfie Dean of Durham University was 64th (WinTech International).
On the women’s side, we secured another top-ten finish via Angharad Broughton of Molesey Boat Club. Racing in a WinTech International, she placed eighth, just ahead of clubmate Olivia Cheesmur in 11th, who raced in a WinTech Cobra SE.
Megan Knight of Reading University was our next-fastest finisher, placing 26th in a WinTech Cobra ahead of Isy Hawes of Leander Club, who raced in a WinTech International to 36th. Sophia Issberner of St Andrew’s University was 39th (WinTech International), Lucy Webber of Newcastle University was 46th (WinTech Cobra SE), Daisy Jackson of Durham University was 53rd (WinTech International), Emily Downing of Leander Club was 61st (WinTech Cobra SE), Addy Patient of Leander was 64th (WinTech International) and Anna Crowe of Notts County Rowing Association was 69th (WinTech International).
It is always exciting to see a new generation of talent take to the water in pursuit of international glory. Although the field lacked the bulk of the athletes who raced in Paris, this was still a roster of incredibly skilled scullers, and Team WinTech is proud to support so many impressive candidates for British selection. We look forward to watching their progression over the coming months.
