In sunny, calm, cold weather conditions, over 400 crews from all over Scotland took part in the Hawco Inverness Fours/Quads and Small Boats Heads on Saturday and Sunday 19th and 20th November on the superb rowing waters of the Caledonian Canal in Inverness over a course of approximately 4500 metres from Dochgarroch to the Inverness Rowing Club’s Boathouse close to the Tomnahurich Swing Bridge.
Much excellent racing was witnessed on both days of the regatta with the host club winning the Women’s Veteran Quad Sculls on Saturday and the Women’s Junior 16 Double Sculls on the Sunday.

The fastest women's crew was the Robert Gordons University BC/Aberdeen University BC open coxless four stroked by Sophie-Tirre in a time of 17 minutes 32 seconds.
In the Small Boats events, fastest men’s crew on Saturday was the Aberdeen BC’s R1 double scull stroked by Hills in a time of 17 minutes 12 seconds.
