2026 race information
The 2026 Marlow Regatta race information on the Time Team website.
The Time Team system can be accessed from this link. Click for latest entry information, to view the draw, live race tracker, Live Stream video link and to get the results of racing. The draw also includes the trophy categories for crews in combined events.
The Regatta will be run in two halves, a morning regatta and an afternoon regatta, each producing winners. All crews will race a Time Trial, and then be allocated to Finals. The Time Trial will be over 1,900m, and Finals over 2K. Our objective will be to give all crews a Final side-by-side race, but this may not be possible in all cases. Should conditions not permit side-by-side racing, results will be based upon the time trial results, assuming that these have been completed.
Provided that four crews race in each event, winners will receive individual prizes.
Session changes for 2026
The following boat types will be combined into finals, to give boats an opportunity for hopefully closer racing: -

3) All 8’s in Session 2
4) All 2x in Session 2
