Coastal Rowing
Coast rowing adds a whole new dimension to the sport with many coastal rowers cherishing the exhilarating aspect of rowing in extreme conditions. It is a growing sport in all corners of the world.
It is certainly one of the fastest growing communities of rowers as the boat design means flat water is not needed to row. Coastal rowing boats are used on coastal shores, inland on some lakes and rivers where the water tends not to be flat, as well as for rowing touring.
Simon Smith, Head coach of the very successful Dunstan Rowing Club in Central Otago is a big fan of coastal rowing, saying “they offer an attractive training alternative. It gives you the option to go out in conditions you wouldn’t normally think about going out in.”
“The heavier nature of the boats allows for greater stability on the water and this too has its advantages, it enables you to become more confident rowing in the rough water,” Simon adds. “They are a stable platform for novices to learn in. A great transition to the smaller boats, they are a great tool.”
