Coracle Regatta
Coracle Regatta 2011
Sunday 31st July 2011 3 – 6pm
Eton Mission Rowing Club, 127 Wallis Road
Try your hand at racing a coracle. A coracle is a one-person boat designed by druids and woven from strips of the ash tree. Full instruction is provided. Although contenders race a short distance, the way across the water is never straight forward, as coracles tend to weave and wend like water dodgems.
This is the 6th annual Coracle Regatta at Hackney Wick, bringing contenders from across the country. For those who prefer to relax at the waterside of our hosts The Eton Mission Rowing Club, there are refreshments and full commentary by our resident Master of Ceremonies. There is plenty of opportunity for everyone to have a go at winning the Coracle Regatta trophy.
