#Rowing: Muckross Rowing Club has chosen to reschedule its head of the river for March 5th. The original date was December 5th, but there was a poor weather forecast and the head had to be cancelled. The March 5th date will be shared with the Erne Head of the River in Enniskillen.

# ROWING: Skibbereen Regatta was today given a new posting of Sunday, June 30th, opening up the prospect of a bumper weekend of rowing at the National Rowing Centre in Cork. Skibbereen Regatta was originally to open the eFlow Grand League Series but had to be postponed because of poor weather. It will now end the series, directly following Cork Regatta on the Saturday. The Irish Schools’ Regatta, also rescheduled, will begin three days of action at the NRC on Friday, June 28th.

The new date for Skibbereen became available because Fermoy Regatta cancelled, citing flood relief works on the traditional course.

Bangor Town Regatta 2021

It’s expected that the fleet will number upwards of 60 with several hundred crew and supporting visitors for the 2021 Regatta.

Among the classes expected are IRC, Sigma 33, RS Elite, and day boats such as Waverleys and Fairies.

The Regatta Chairman is Gavin Watson and Royal Ulster Yacht Club is the organising club for what is Northern Ireland's biggest inshore yacht racing event.

Feeder races from Dun Laoghaire and Scotland are planned.

The Bangor Town Regatta fleet will race out of the Bangor Marina, on what is Belfast Lough’s enviable area of virtually tide and hazard free waters.

Two round-the-buoys courses within a manageable distance from the marina will provide testing but enjoyable racing and in addition, coastal races every day will give those who prefer
somewhat more leisurely competition, the opportunity to use the whole of the Lough.

Racing will be in the capable hands of International Race Officer and National Judge, local man Robin Gray.

The Race Office will be located at the Marina close to where the après sailing will be well catered for.
