After winning the “Coppa Risi'atori” two weeks ago, the “gozzo” of the quarter of “Venezia” won the “Coppa Barontini” last Saturday. I didn't see the race so I am posting an archive photo taken last April, during the “Trofeo D'Alesio”.
“San Jacopo” was an excellent second, the picture was taken last Thursday, during a training session.See also: Gozzi & Gozzette - Palio Marinaro - Trofeo D'Alesio - Coppa Risi'atori - Beyond the Second

I tried this once. Had no idea how much work it is!
Everyone pulling in unison! They'd better be! The "Venezia" group must be pretty darn good! Love these photos!
Go team!
Excellent shots. Everything in unison. beautiful. MB
Hard work, I think, but makes lovely photos:)
To think that that's how lifeboats were like... and galleys...
Wonderful event!
I love the first picture, it's amazing!

I would rather photograph it that participate.
What a treat to see these photos. I often see the University of Minnesota students crew on the Mississippi. Any activity on water is appealing.
I agree about watching being more comfortable than participating. Speaking of which, is this a good spectator sport?
Hi Trillian - thanks for all your delightful comments...you make my day!
Re your question on The Villages: No, there's no swimming in Lake Sumter ... it contains too many alligators!
I never get very interested in team sports, but it would be fun to see these guys in the boats with the color and activity, as long as I don't have to care who wins.
The top shot is just great!
