Dear all,

After all hope is more or less lost on July 15th’s weather being favorable for

the row boat race, I have decided to postpone until next Saturday, July 21st.

I use this site for weather updates :

Here’s to hoping next week the weather is kinder to us…

Prête Moi Paris is hosting its 3rd annual Coupe d’été Row Boat Regatta!

You are cordially invited to join us for this festive event. The price of renting boats is 11,50 € / h (1-2 pers.), 12,50 €/h (3-4 pers.) for one hour of use. Caution/deposit : 10 €.

Boat house on the Lac Daumesnil, phone :

01.43.28.19.20. (Payable on-site.)

You are encouraged to bring picnic items (i.e. Blanket, basket of delicious things to share, perhaps some paper plates/cups/napkins, utensils, and someone remember a cork screw!). We will all share our things for an «  apéro » on the grass before/after the race, on the Île de Bercy. You may of course participate as spectators and picnic-goers to cheer on the « sportifs » if you cannot row! May I suggest practice rowing to prepare for the race?!? 😉

I look forward to seeing you there!

Date : Samedi/Saturday July/juillet 21

Heure/Time : 15h00 / 3pm

Place : RDV devant les barques/in front of the boat docks.

Métro : Porte Dorée or Porte de Charenton, line 8.

Météo/Weather : Because of bad weather predictions for the original July 15th date the race has been postponed until Saturday the 21st of July

This is the 3rd year Prête-Moi Paris has hosted this event, and does so out of good humor and generosity of spirit. So please join in and let’s have a lovely afternoon together !

There will be a bottle of champagne for the winning boat !
