The club will travel in force with a large contingent of experienced junior, senior and masters members to race members of clubs from Aberdeen and the central belt on the River Dee tomorrow.

In addition to those members, a group of novice members who only started rowing several weeks ago will also be integrated into some Inverness crews to enjoy racing in their very first regatta.

The finish line of the 500 metre sprint course on the River Dee is located alongside the Aberdeen Boat Club clubhouse where the many spectators will enjoy the spectacle of crews speeding under the Queen’s Bridge just before the finish line.
