Commercial Regatta 2023 Review


Waterford Boat Club took part in their first regatta of 2023 at Commercial Rowing Club in Dublin. The course is a 2 lane 1200 metre stretch of the Liffey.

Waterford had 16 entries across 12 categories. The full entry list can be found here.

On a surprisingly sunny April day the club had multiple wins across their various events as well as qualification for several finals and an excellent 3rd place for Sean Harte in the Mens J16 single sculls.

In addition to a great series of results we had a large turnout of new members starting in their first regatta, so a great day all round. Thanks again to the parents, coaches, drivers and everyone else who pitched in to help on the day.

Most importantly well done to all crews involved, the hard work over the Winter months has really paid off and we’ll look forward to Lee Regatta in Cork on 13th May 2023.
