Row, Row, Row Your Boa....?

This whole SUP thing is getting a little carried away.
What will they do next, yoga?

Row, Row, Row Your Boat.

Gently on the Bay.

Wait, That Doesn't Look Like An AC To Me. What's Going On Andrew?

Andrew Campbell chose rowing because he mistakenly thought it would be similar to sailing.

Rowing a SUP? You've got to be kidding me. Two words: Rube Goldberg.

That's just ugly!

Santa and his helpers love to row.

Now This Is A Race! (Forget That America's Cup Thinghy.)

Kudos to the US Men's Crazy 8s for winning the gold.
Kudos to the Women's 8s and Men's 4s who also won gold at the Wolrd Cup.

Funny thing about real races, everyone uses the same design. It's the person or team that determines the outcome. That's something the billionaires running the other Cup should think about for the future.

One More Rowing (Sculling) Video.

You know you want to do it. Now go row!

Row Hard Or Go Home!

This is how you get rower's hands.
You don't need to watch the whole video, in fact you only need to watch about 20 seconds of it to get the gist of it.

Rower's Hands.

If you row, you know.

If You Row, You Know.

Symphony of Motion (original movie) from Ken Santucci on Vimeo.

It’s a great art, is rowing.

It’s the finest art there is.


It’s a symphony of motion.


And when you’re rowing well


Why it’s nearing perfection –


And when you reach perfection


You’re touching the Divine.


It touches the you of you’s


Which is your soul.


- George Pocock

It's not a Laser!
The Eastport Nesting Pram by CLC (Chesapeake Light Craft), Is this a better option than an El Toro, especially for a city dweller who has boats and assortment of boards in his shop, garage and side yard? Who am I fooling, I still want a Toro.

Gently around the bay.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.

Yes Doug, the Aero is a great boat for the bay. Now what about the Hoot or Soliton?

My Favorite Boat Is A....

An Alden 16 rowing shell. There, my dirty little secret is out.

If You Row, You Know.

It's a Zen thing.
