Possible early American likely Fishmongers Guild members?
You may wish to show an early American connection with the English fishmongers guild? If so, New England governors Thomas Dudley and John Winthrop may have been members. Capt. William Hilton Sr. (wife Ellen Mainwaring) may have been a member; allegedly his father, Roger Hilton was. All are my ancestors. focusoninfinity — Preceding unsigned comment added by Focusoninfinity (talk • contribs) 00:53, 18 January 2011 (UTC) If they were members, then Messrs. Dudley, Winthrop, and Hilton, might be added to the roster of "Notable Liverymen of the Guild and Company", and their names tag'd *Notable American members. Also if the (legal?) term "by right of patrimony" can be linked elsewhere in Wikipedia, that might also be done.98.74.156.64 (talk) 14:32, 22 January 2011 (UTC)focusoninfinity98.74.156.64 (talk) 14:32, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Longest boat race?
The article quotes Doggets Coat and Badge Race as being "the longest boat race in the world – 4 miles, 5 furlongs (7,400 m)". This is nowhere near as long as the annual Sulkava boat race in Finland (Sulkavan_Suursoudut), which is 60 kilometres (37 miles) long and has 23 different series, from singles and doubles to "church boats" with 14 rowers plus cox. The boats are traditional Finnish models.--Death Bredon (talk) 22:41, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
