After the success of last year's event, the race will be run on Tuesday 8th March, from 2pm. Entries are open to boats no higher than M3s/W2s, although exceptional entries (M2s of predominately ex-novices) may be permitted on a case-by-case basis. The regatta is, however, intended for lower boats' rowers and as such we ask that no rower enter who has competed in any Bumps in an M1, M2 or W1.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The race will be run in a similar style to Pembroke Regatta with divisions for W2, M3, W3 and M4.
