The Head of the Dart was held in early October over a 15 kilometre downstream course from Totnes to Dartmouth.

Conditions were ideal with flat water, a light breeze and an outgoing spring tide, with all crews completing the course successfully.

The event attracted 48 entries from a variety of rowing disciplines from the South West, Wales, the South coast and beyond.
