Registration

  • This is for new members who have rowing experience - demonstrate your skills and get cleared to use the fleet.

Registration is closed

This FREE check-out is intended for: 

  1. New members who are experienced rowers who want to have their skills checked out so that they can get on the water (mandatory prerequisite to using the fleet). 
  2. Returning rowers who are feeling a bit rusty and want to go over rigging and a few other things before returning to a new season of rowing. (This check-out does NOT include rowing instruction.  This is for people who already know how to row.)

We will be getting on the water and rowing.

This check-out will cover:
  • overview of the fleet
  • rigging and derigging
  • launching and landing
  • use of logbooks
  • policies and practices
  • distance rowing (where to go, tides, wind/waves, currents, hazards)
  • capsize recovery (i.e. get back into the boat from deep water)
Note that new members should bring a wetsuit and towel, as they must demonstrate a successful capsize recovery to complete their checkout.  Returning members are of course welcome to do so as well.
