I'm wondering if it would be worth adding a brief phrase explaining what "caught a crab" is. I realise there is a wikilink, but it's to part of an article, rather than an article itself, and on a mobile device a reader might just see the link, assume it goes to the creature, and think "huh"?
249:
Now then, this is a tricky one, I could add a footnote I suppose, but otherwise I'd need to be explaining this term in multiple articles which is supposed to be being served by the glossary of terms. What would you suggest?
175:"The race" - might be better to say "The 1858 race", "this race" or something that clearly states the sentence is talking about this one, as the previous sentence is a general description of the race over all years
226:"Commencing at 1pm ... " - I've never really been a fan of sentences that start with the present participle myself, wouldn't "The race started at 1pm" (with relevant grammar changes) be better?

Oddly, to "shoot a bridge" is common parlance with rowing. I could "blanderate" it to become "pass under" if you prefer, but shooting bridges is what we did/they do....

Yes, I think that's the best we can do under the circumstances. I had a quick look around for sources, but there's not enough online to obviously make

303:"and shot Hammersmith Bridge with a length-and-a-half lead" - not sure if "shot" is the right word, it makes it sound a bit too much like

No, I meant the start of the third sentence of the lead. I've tweaked it to what I meant. Your fix in the body is okay as well.

Just minor things, as expected. I'll put the review on hold now as the sprouts are nearly done and I need to make the gravy.

I did add a reference to an article describing the origins of the term, if that helps?

While the turkey is cooling and the sprouts are on the boil, I'll quickly review this
282:
an article on its own, so a redirect is the strongest compromise between everything.

Thanks
Ritchie, hope the sprouts were awesome, the turkey more so. Glad tidings.
