Join us on Sunday, 17 October 2021 for the 3.8 km Rising Tide Waterfront Solutions Head of the Raritan Regatta®. This small-boat masters regatta is sure to challenge even the most seasoned rowers on the historic Raritan River in Middlesex County, New Jersey. The regatta begins at the Albany Street Bridge in the heart of historic downtown New Brunswick, NJ and ends 3800m downstream in Edison, NJ.
The Rising Tide Waterfront Solutions Head of the Raritan Regatta is a processional 'head' race wherein crews row against the clock, leaving the starting gate every minute. The event is open to all rowers, novice to hotshot, in racing singles, doubles or pairs.
This event has become a fall rowing classic!
