1998 U.S. and International Regatta Schedule

I'll be happy to list any and all regattas. Drop me a line with regatta name, date, site, city and state, contact name and phone number, and URL if the regatta has a web site, and I'll add it.

Many of these listings were taken (with permission) from the pages of The Independent Rowing News. Subscriptions to the newspaper are $25/year, US$35/year in Canada and are available by calling (603) 643-0059 or via e-mail at The Independent Rowing News.

Philadelphia area regattas are posted on a separate page.
