UK Rowing Address Book

Last Updated: 08JAN12
This is a directory of rowing-related UK companies and organisations, mostly taken from those advertising in Regatta magazine.

E-mail me (dudhia@atm.ox.ac.uk) any additions/corrections.

Dates after the name show the issue in which they last advertised. For those which haven't advertised, or at least not in the last 3 years, dates in brackets showed the last time that I checked that their web-pages still exist.

All given email addresses have had "@" changed to "-@-" as an antispam measure.
