The 14th of May Memorial Regatta Rotterdam is a rowing competition for sloops on the Maas River, commemorating the bombing of the city on 14 May 1940.
For the eighth time in succession, the 14th of May Memorial Regatta Rotterdam is held. An annual rowing competition for sloops.
The sloop rowing club Dutch Marines Rowing Challenge (DMRC) organizes this competition together with the Stichting Rotterdam en de Mariniers, the Van Ghentkazerne of the Korps Mariniers, the Mariniersmuseum and the municipality of Rotterdam. The course is set out on the Maas between the Erasmusbrug and the Van Brienenoordbrug and has a length of 14.051941 kilometers.
In keeping with the DMRC's objective (rowing for and with buddies in need), the 2025 edition will once again feature several sloops manned by people who live with the consequences of PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and people with addiction problems on a daily basis.
