CREW: Chugging on the Charles
CORRECTION APPENDED SEE BOTTOMScott Wiener '08, who steers the men's crew team's boat as its cockswain, started down the toughest maneuver on the three-mile course of last Saturday's 43rd annual Head of the Charles Regatta in Boston, a turn under the Eliot Bridge where the boat of an eight-man crew from China's Peking University crashed and sank last year."The problem with the bridge is that the river is going one way, and the bridge is facing at an angle to the river such that you have to make a 90-degree [turn] within the period of 30 to 40 feet, and that's kind of difficult for a boat," Wiener said.But Wiener wasn't intimidated by the challenge, steering the crew team's boat clear of any trouble under the bridge."I cut it really short, and it was basically a perfect turn," he said.
