The Apprentices Thames Barge Driving Event
Saturday 11th May 2019
Race Start: 13:00
The new annual and end of season event will take place on Saturday 11th May 2019, which allows Thames Watermen & Lightermen Apprentices drive (steer and row) barges over the traditional seven-mile course from Greenwich to Westminster, with just one Freeman onboard to provide support.
The race consists of three to five teams of Apprentices and reminds them of the traditional skills of lightermen who moved freight using just their own personal strength and ride the best possible tidal flows until the 1930's.
