Queen Margarets

The rowing boat that Kate Middleton trained in on the River Thames in 2007 is now on the market and its owners, the Sisterhood rowers, hope it’s going to generate plenty of money for charity. The Duchess of Cambridge was expected to row in a Dragon boat for a cross-Channel race against the all-boys crew the Brotherhood. As a result of security fears, she ultimately had to get out of the gruelling race but her appearance on the traditional Chinese vessel, following her short seperation from William, still became notorious and is among the major photos of her 10-year relationship with the Prince. The photos of her training, not on a rowing machine but on the Dragon boat along with a group of feisty beautiful women, became iconic.

Now the piece of marvelous royal history is available and the proceeds will go to the Royal Marsden Cancer charity. The all-female rowing crew are positive that the Dragon boat will make as much money as the dress Kate put on during the St Andrews University fashion show which made a incredible £78,000 at auction. Ever since the challenge, the boat has carried out races in the Amazon, Costa Rica and Venice. And also the royals triggered a stir after they went head-to-head in a river race on their post-wedding tour in Canada. Practicing any race can be difficult but a First Degree Fitness Rowing Machine is a great way to improve your fitness.

The Dragon boat images of the 29 year-old even appeared in the Hollywood flick that was published a week before the couple wed in April last year. The founder Emma Sayle is enticing Brits to purchase the piece of floating history by contacting it priceless as it “has been involved in more adventure, gossip, romance and good times than people have had hot dinner.” The boat is not really fit to contend in river races but it needs to retire to a loving home, so help increase cash for charity and merely try a Kettler rowing machine to train instead.
