An update from the Event Chairman, Gavin Watson on the 2021 Bangor Town Regatta

Bangor Town Regatta will be back in 2021!

It is with a deep regret that the Organising Committee of Charles Hurst Jaguar Land Rover Bangor Town Regatta have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 regatta.  This is a decision that has not been taken lightly and we do so in full consultation with the current Government guidelines on the ongoing Covid-19 situation which is expected to last into at least June 2020.

A Scottish registered charity is planning to make their debut at this years Charles Hurst Jaguar Land Rover Bangor Town Regatta which will also be their first excursion to Ireland! Autism on the Water is a charity which raises awareness of the Autistic spectrum through the sport of sailing. Murray MacDonald the charity’s founder and who is also autistic has been building up this fantastic initiative which has become recognised not just across Scotland and the UK but also as far as Hong Kong, Australia and Antigua! The charity’s main ambassador is David Witt who skippered Sun Hung Kai Scallywag in the 2017-18 Volvo Ocean Race and he has been heavily involved in the charity’s success.
