The world-famous Schuylkill River regatta course!  Download Course Map HERE.

Course: The racecourse runs from start 1500m mark (above Strawberry Mansion Bridge) thru the bridge to the finish 500m mark above the wire & grandstand on the famed Schuylkill River. There will be six non-buoyed lanes, and stake boats at the starting line.

Boat Traffic Pattern: Traffic on the Schuylkill, from boathouse row, goes upstream on the west bank of the river, and downstream on the east bank. Visiting Crews should launch from the Canoe Club (Temple) dock (east side), paddle up the east side through Strawberry Mansion Bridge, do not cross to the west bank.  Continue upstream side of the bridge past starting line. Warm-up area is between 1500m start line and the Twin Stone Bridges. Crews are advised not to go above the Twin Stone Bridges as there are submerged boulders there. Crews launching from Boathouse Row should be aware of the waterfall on the west bank across from the boathouses.

Upon finishing the race, visiting crews coming back to the City or Canoe Club dock, will be turned by Finish Marshall in toward the east bank, and then proceed in lane 0 to the dock.

If you think you may have won your race you may collect your award at the Regatta Headquarters tent. You may also collect your award at the party after the regatta at #2 Boathouse Row starting at 5pm.
