Stella Maris Rowing Club will be holding its annual regatta on the River Liffey this coming Sunday 10 July with the competition getting underway from 10 am at Poolbeg Marina in Dublin’s Docklands.

The day is so far promising dry weather with light winds, which will bring some cheer in a season that’s suffered from blowouts and poor conditions for coastal rowing in the early part for the East Coast circuit.

And it also marks the Ringsend club’s first full regatta since 2019 before the pandemic, so the celebratory mood will be expectedly high.

Ten clubs from along the East Coast from Balbriggan to Arklow will be taking part, bringing over 120 crews onto the water throughout the day in racing across 16 different categories.

The draw takes place at 9am for the race list, which includes Novice, Inter, Junior and Senior Men and Ladies, U12s mixed, U14 for Boys and Girls, U16 for Boys and Girls, U18/U21 for Boys and Girls and a Mixed class.

Coxswains meet at 9.30am and the first race starts at 10am. For the full race order see the club’s Facebook page HERE.
