Rule R13 Regarding Jim

Rules and regulations relating to the conduct of boatmen on the Isis

Last updated: 7th December, 1995

R13. High Pintage Conditions - Isis
During high pintage conditions, special rules are in force on the Isis, as indicated by a flag raised at New College Boathouse:
  1. Red Flag: Isis closed to all University and College rowers. Crews rowing on stretches other than the Isis/Godstow do so entirely at their own risk, and are advised to abide by the advice of local boat clubs regarding whether it is safe to do so. Be vigilant for launches driven at high speeds by boatmen wearing Beefeater hats.
  2. Amber Flag: Isis closed to all College crews except Senior VIIIs. Crews must spin between the red and white post 100m downstream of Donnington Bridge and upstream of Haystacks Corner. Beware of erratic punts ferrying bicycles from OUBC to the boathouses.
  3. Blue Flag: Isis closed to Novice status coxes. Crews must spin between the red and white post 100m downstream of Donnington Bridge and upstream of Haystacks Corner. Don't mail me to tell me this page isn't funny, I know.
