This was a really fun project commissioned by a rower in the Nashville Rowing Club who was on the right dock at the right time when Vanderbilt came up short for their scrimmage that morning. It celebrates the joys of racing as well as all kinds of good-natured heckling that ensues between teammates (both at the start line and after the race).
