Instead of its traditional venue on Loch Fyne, Scotland's premier regatta will move east and operate out of Clyde estuary locations from May 28 to May 31.
The revised event will also see all shoreside and social activities cancelled to reduce the risk of the event not running for a second year.
Glenn Porter, chairman of the organising committee, said: 'In 2020 we saw the largest regatta north of the south coast cancelled, something we are keen to avoid again.
'Born out of a desire to race and socialise over the last bank holiday weekend in May, we know 2021 will need to be different. By stripping out the high risk social aspects, which we know many love, and operating out of multiple bases we hope to support the many racers who look forward to this annual event.'
Details on the 2021 race format will be released later this month on the event website
