On the final day of the 2017 May Bumps, Selwyn gave a traditional launch with bubbles to its new boat. It's named in memory of our great Master Owen Chadwick; and his son Stephen did the honours by pouring some suitably sparkling alcohol over the vessel. 

 

 

A number of members of the Chadwick family were also present, including three of Owen's four children. 

 

Speakers at the event at the new boathouse included Brian Hornsby, representing the Permanent Henley Fund which supports rowing at Selwyn.
