The Official Royal Regatta Website
We have been asked to make some of the highlights of our broadcast available on the website. We'll put some of the more requested pieces up on a highlights page. If you have a request please email us with, if possible, the date and time that it was broadcast. We'll be adding to these over the coming weeks. Please be aware that there are some restrictions that we have to comply with, so not all requests can be satisfied. Please note that all material remains the copyright of Regatta Radio Ltd. You're welcome to download copies for individual use but please don't redistribute it, rather direct your potential audience to this website.
Since we finished broadcasting there has been an unusual amount of rain in Southern England resulting in severe floods in some areas. Henley has experienced some minor flooding which would have been devastating for the regatta had it occurred a couple of weeks earlier. Click here to see pictures of the flood.
Sadly broadcasting is over for another year and we're all back to our day jobs. It's been another fantastic ride and we'd like to thank everybody that has contributed to this year's production. Firstly our main sponsors Invesco Perpetual and the Daily Telegraph without whom it would not have been possible. Thanks also to all those people, too numerous to mention, who so freely and willingly gave of their time; a big thank you also to all our other advertisers; a special mention too to our listeners from all over the globe, we wouldn't do without you. We've had many tributes and requests, we'll try to get round to answering them.
We're busy trying to put it all to bed we've think we've removed all the poster and advertising material that we put up in and around Henley. If you spot any please let us know at info@regattaradio.co.uk or phone us.

MYSTIC HENLEY was won by someone with the username of "edible-crayons" who was the only person to chose 14/19 crews correctly. There was 1 person with 13 (Brit2005) and 8 people got 12 correct. There were 222 entrants. To see the results click here. Well done to edible-crayons who only need get in touch with us to claim the hamper that awaits in the Regatta Radio studio. Thanks to Rachel Quarrell for organising this and to Rich Stock who designed it all. It was a great competition for all those that entered, it leaves us wondering does edible-crayons write with the sharp end of a slice of pizza?
Henley Royal Regatta have published the list of Entrants to this year's Regatta. We have had a look and analysed it in a couple of different ways. Entrants by Institution gives a complete list of all the clubs, universities, schools etc that have entered. Entries by Number of Entries is the same list sorted by the number of different crews each institution has entered. It is a little distorted in that if a club enters and 8 in say the Thames Cup (9 people) it counts the same as an entry in the Diamond Sculls (1 man). Similarly a composite crew (e.g. Leander Club and Henley R. C.) counts 1 each when in the extreme only 1 person from each club might be involved in the crew. In the case of a composite crew it is possible that an institution gets no mention at all!
We've been following the progress of the Regatta Site with a series of photographs. We hadn't realised just what an enormous effort constructing the site is. Click this link to see the latest set of photographs.
Regatta Radio is delighted to announce that this year we will be sponsored by Invesco Perpetual and The Daily Telegraph.
As you may have noticed we also have a new company logo, see top right of this page.
