Head of the Gorge and Tail of the Gorge Regattas

  • Hosted By: University of Victoria Rowing Club
  • Sanctioned by RCA and Rowing BC (2021)

 

New Site! Construction at Gorge Point Park! 

The current site at Gorge Point Park is under construction and we have had to come up with an alternate plan for how to host this regatta. 

As a result there will need to be multiple launch sites with multiple control commissions. 

At present we are working on a smaller footprint on Gorge Point Park, a larger footprint on the classic Craigflower Park before the new bridge was put in and of course the Gorge Narrows/St Michaels University School(SMUS)Rowing Club. 

As a result Head of the Gorge will run the classic (pre 2014)long course towards the Craigflower Park with a marshall and row back after racing is complete for those crews rowing back to Gorge Point Park and the Gorge Narrows/SMUS Rowing Clubs. 

For Tail of the Gorge, we will complete at the standard finish line in front of Gorge Point Park, leaving lots of room for all boats to cross the finish line and await the appropriate row back to the Craigflower Park/SMUS RC/GNRC.  

Thank you all for your patience, this opportunity to go back to the classic course is very exciting in making the race longer and we look forward to seeing you all here!
