Whitby's Friendship Rowing Club raises a glass to 30 years of Pegasus success

Built in 1993 by Roger Wood and christened by Annette, it has been a much-loved boat for decades and become a firm club favourite.

To celebrate 30 years, Friendship captain Amy Clarkson and vice captain Laura Kendrew hosted a club fun day and party welcoming members old and new, Roger and Annette Wood, their family and the first-ever crew that rowed in the boat on the day it was christened.

We played beach games, ate lots of cake and raised a glass to our beloved Pegasus.

Over the years, Pegasus has won many races and been awarded many points, rowers have fond memories of the Pegasus and a glass was raised to its long-term success.

Amy said: “Here's to many more years of the legend that is the Pegasus, built for success.”
