The IDOR will run from Sunday night 4th June to midday Friday 9th June 2023, with racing starting on Monday 5th. It is expected that the event will follow the same format as in recent years. More details in due course.

The 2022 results are online under the Results menu item.

After the disappointment of 2020 we were finally able to hold the 2021 IDOR, a little later than usual but better late than never. 9 boats took part, a reduced entry but understandable given the last minute decisions needed. You can see a summary of the results on the “RESULTS” page.

These have now been added to the Regatta Documents page
