8 lanes on a 2,000m lake
ATTRACTING INTERNATIONAL COMPETITORS
Marlow Regatta
- Based at Dorney Lake, Eton (near Windsor) which has world class facilities, a 2,000m lake and hosted the London 2012 Olympic Games.
- One of the major regattas in the British Rowing calendar, attracting a large entry from schools, clubs and universities from around the UK along with overseas crews who are preparing for Henley Royal Regatta just down the road.
- An independent regatta that isn't run on behalf of a single rowing club, but is organised by a committee of volunteers on behalf of the regatta Subscribers.
- Takes place on a Saturday two weeks prior to Henley Royal Regatta and for some competitors this will be the last chance to pre-qualify for Henley Royal.
Racing takes place between 08:30 and 19:00 with morning and afternoon sessions consisting of time trials followed by finals. The time trials use 2 adjacent lanes to progress crews through to the 8 lane finals.
