Camping/Hogroast BBQ/Party:
As usual, we will be operating our very successful campsite at Thames Young Mariners in Riverside Drive, just a few minutes walk from the Race Finish. The 14th Richmond Sea Scouts will once again organise and host this very popular service.
The Friday night BBQ party will include a delicious hog roast and the entertainment will be provided by our regular blues band.
On Saturday evening the bar will be open.

Shuttlebus:
The ShuttleBus service has become an integral part of Race Day. In the morning of this year’s reverse Race, it will take crews and spectator boat passengers from the Holiday Inn Hotel, Thames Ditton, campsite and Finish area to the Start in time for registration and boarding. The service starts at 07.00 hours. And now, in response to competitor demand, we will be running buses from the Finish (Ham Street car park) at 21.00 (post prizegiving) and 22.30 hours to the Start, calling at Waterloo and Liverpool Street stations.

Passenger Boat:
With its good visibility, low freeboard, licensed bar and friendly cooperative crew,
The Viscount makes the ideal viewing platform for The Great River Race. The boat will be leaving
Masthouse Terrace Pier promptly at 10:45 hours with boarding starting from
10:15 hours. Light lunches will be available on board.
Note: The trip will last approximately 2.5 hours. There will be a return to Westminster Pier leaving the finish at 16:45 hours.
