In a celebration of the 30th annual Aberdeen Boat Race the University of Aberdeen Boat Club (AUBC) and Robert Gordon University Boat Club (RGUBC) will battle it out on a 3.5km stretch of the River Dee on Saturday, March 15 at 12:15pm.
Known as the north-east’s answer to the prestigious Oxford-Cambridge Boat Race, it has been running since 1996 and is currently the longest running boat race in Scotland.
The AUBC president Katharina Kusserow accepted the challenge from RGUBC president Laura Stewart and said: “I am excited that we are rowing in the prestigious 30th annual race and our ambition is to hold the win.”
Supporters are encouraged to save the date, pick a colour, and come down to Aberdeen Boat Club to cheer the winners over the finish line on the day!
