Very well done to those who broke course records in 2021.
- Michael Lavarack & Andrew Birkett beat the K2 record by an impressive 4 minutes to set a new K2 and all craft record of 2 hours 44 minutes.
- Edgar Boehm took the K1(M) record, breaking the 3 hours barrier with a time of 2:59.
- Maria Fischer (definitely in a C1…) broke the C1(female) record by an incredible 27 minutes to set 4:14
- Thor Harley & Daniel Finlayson (C2) finished in 3:43 knocking 5 minutes off the previous record
- Liz Murnaghan & Vicky Metcalfe finished in 4:01 in a C2 beating the previous record by 27 minutes which had stood since the first Ring in 2015
- Alison Rennie finished in 5:43 setting, we think, the first SUP(F) record.
