The Dad Vail organizing committee felt it had little choice but to return to the Cooper River in 2024, continuing a break with seven decades of tradition on the Schuylkill.
, billed as the biggest collegiate rowing regatta in the world, is a long one.
The dredges, which were initially scheduled to be done years ago, were delayed by a dispute between the Army Corps and original contractor, who wanted more money to continue after it had already started. The river above the dam had not been dredged since 1999, causing silt to build up, leaving mud or land in front of some of the boathouses where there used to be water. Farther upstream, two lanes along the racecourse are also shallower than others, creating a competitive disadvantage.of sediment from in front of Boathouse Row in 2022, and the spoils were taken to Fort Mifflin.
Hanna said organizers love the rowing tradition and setting of the Schuylkill. But committee members had to be 100% certain whatever course they picked was already ready for racing.
