Earlier this year the Dragon Boat Race at Brighton Marina on April 24 was cancelled due to nesting swans in the Marina.

The race was re-scheduled for September 9 at Bewl Water in Kent, where eighteen Marine Tavern customers attended to support the Marine Tavern rowers and a great day was had by all.

Sadly the Marine Tavern rowers who were organised by Craig Harwood did not win but came a very respectable third raising a magnificent £1,623.73 for the Rockinghorse Children’s Charity in the process.
