Our Crew:
Stroke seat, Andrew Potter, from Napier Boys School. Andrew (rowing with Tom Jenkins) beat us in the u18 pair at Maadi, but Louis and I got one back on him when Auckland Grammar took out the u18 four. He's the young one of the crew at only 16 years old. In the 'on-land' crew photo he is between myself and Louis. To the right of Louis is Greg Brand, he's from St Bedes down in Christchurch. He is the Bowman of the crew, taking the place of Tom Jenkins who was taken out of the crew after tendonitis in his wrist stopped him from being able to row. Greg is definitely one of the characters of the crew, always got a good joke to share and his laugh alone is enough to brighten the mood in all the early mornings.
On the far right is our coxswain Caleb Shepherd, from Hamilton Boys High School, the brains of the crew. He's always down for a good chat and a laugh, just don't mention the Maadi Cup. Then there's us, we're the middle pair in the boat, Adam in 3 seat and Louis in 2 seat.
