Regatta 2020
2020 Regatta cancelled due to Coronavirus pandemic.
The Port Navas Regatta was first held in August 1914, in the same week that war was declared. It was not held again until 1921.
There were lapses again in the years before and during the second war, and after the war it was often difficult to get a committee together. The Regatta was re-started properly in 1962 and has been run every year since until this year when it fell victim to the coronavirus pandemic.
For more about the re-establishment of the Regatta in the early sixties scroll to the bottom of History > The Regatta for the late Maurice Tonkin’s personal notes.
We’re all looking forward to next year’s Regatta. In the meantime Margaret Scott thought you might enjoy this collection of old posters.
