Planning for 2025
As at early June, planning for the regatta on 2 August is well underway. It will be very similar to last year's competition, as descibed below. The poster should be out on 17 June and entries open on 2 July.
Archive report from 2024
All went well with the main Tyne Regatta and the informal Captain's Regatta with quads and eights racing afterwards.Results are at oar-online.uk/tyneregatta24 or as pdf.
Divs 1 & 2 - conventional regatta format
Divisions 1 and 2 were in conventional regatta format, but with a number of mixed events.Timing of divisions was Div 1 starting 10:00 and Div 2 starting at 13:00. First boating was at 09:40 and 12:40 respectively.
We raced in two lanes only (three for two races) over 600 metres, rowing upstream and finishing at Tyne ARC steps. All crews boated at TARC except for those from TURC, who used their own steps.
Div 3 - Captain's Regatta
Division 3 (labelled Tyne ARC Captain's Regatta on the poster) from 15:00 consisted of knock-out races for eights and stable quads, with crews drawn on the day from interested competitors who had raced in Divs 1 and 2 and other TARC club members. These races were not on BROE and no points awarded.
Entries and draw
Entries were by BROE only and opened on 22 July 24 and closed on 7 August 24. There

Tides

The event ran in 2021 and an archive page is here. The regatta was cancelled in 2020 due to Covid-19 and Government and Britsh Rowing restrictions.
