It seems like years ago, but our Coracle Races were enjoyed by hundreds of spectators who joined the Carmarthen River Festival back in July.
The Towy gave a warm welcome to the Teifi coracle men who came to take part in the races. It's great to see the two rivers join forces and support each others coracle event.....even though they sometimes take our trophies!
There were several coracle races: The Mayor's Cup (Winner: Malcolm Rees), The King of The Towy (Winner: Ian Harries), Relay Race (Winners: Malcolm Rees and Joe Woodhead) and The Coracle Society Novice Race (Winner: Dana Rees).

Coracle for sale - I have owned this for about twenty years. I bought it in Narberth in Wales from an antique shop and renovated it by giving it a new calico covering and then waterproofing it with bitumen. It is at my home in south Devon on the river Dart

We’ve been picking up a lot of trash during this pandemic and wanted to be able to reach trash in the middle of a nearby swale. One of our friends suggested we could get it if we had a round boat. You know a coracle, something I’ve only encountered in books till now. Using YouTube and the Coracle Society directions I was able to construct my first coracle.

Sadly the Bures coracle regatta has been cancelled for this year. We've left it as late as possible before deciding to cancel, due to the uncertain current situation.
We are looking to run next year's regatta on August 7th 2021. Hope to see you then.

The Ironbridge Coracle Trust, who organise the annual Ironbridge coracle regatta, regretfully decided this week to cancel this year's coracle regatta, which would have been held on Monday 31st August.
Due to the ongoing uncertainties regarding coronavirus, even if it would be possible to hold the event this August, they do not feel they have sufficient time now to organise a safe event.
