  • The DW management are monitoring the weather conditions continuously and currently it is the wind that is the predominant factor.

    With winds increasing throughout the day on Saturday peaking around 10pm through to 1am Sunday we would advise all crews to be prepared for these conditions. Whilst a South Westerly wind direction will bring welcome relief compared with last Easter, the 26mph breeze with gusts of up to 48mph require caution ⚠️ The wind is due to drop significantly for high tide Teddington.

    There are currently no changes to the Senior event, however please continue to follow this board in case amendments become required.

    The stages event will be operating some minor amendments to the start schedule tomorrow to enable crews to finish earlier to avoid the higher wind speeds. Please monitor the bulletin board for further details.

  • We have been made aware that there is a road closure between Cookham Bridge and Boulters lock, meaning there is no access to Boulters from Cookham bridge.

    As a result, support crews will need to find alternative routes to Boulters lock as we understand the road is closed until the 12th April.

  • Final notices to all paddlers have now been issued. The full document can be found here.

  • Please see attached which details timings and start arrangements for the Day 4 Stages Race, on Easter Monday morning at Thames Young Mariners. 

    Important Points:

    • A key part of our safety protocols is checking all boats for buoyancy and mandatory emergency kit before proceeding onto the Tideway leg in order to complete DW.

    • High Water Teddington on Monday 6th April, meaning that our first start is 06.00, and it will be an early morning for everybody.

    • For all crews, boat checks and final launch preparations will be largely in the dark/early daybreak, and it will still be fully dark when the Junior Campsite is woken up.

    For this reason, please read and understand the timing and steps in the process for all classes, and share with your support crews. This will make it easier for everyone to complete this process quickly and easily.

    Please Note: if you miss your boat check, you will not be allowed to launch and you will not be allowed to finish the race.

    If you have any questions on the arrangements, please see Donna Pollock, Stages Race Chief Umpire or Gareth Scragg, Junior Teams Liaison Officer, who will be able to advise.
