2018 SUMMER REGISTRATION OPEN IS OPEN!
Tim Yount
Tim was a long-time sailor with numerous hours on the water when he became interested in PCRA through his wife Carla in 2013. He initially joined the club as a launch driver and is now the club’s primary driver, providing support to the 5:30 and 7:30 am crews from "SeaWoof," his 17' Bristol Skiff. When not driving the launch, Tim also enjoys picking up a sweep oar when a seat needs to be filled. He and Carla also volunteer each year as river control launch drivers at the Head of the Charles Regatta in Cambridge, and he is training to be a skipper for the Maine Island Trail Association.
learn-to-row clinic
A two hour clinic for those who have never sat in a boat or those who have been away from the sport for several years and would like a refresher course. These clinics are typically held on Saturday mornings just 4-5 times throughout the season so sign up early. Experience your first few strokes pulling on the handle of the oar and feeling the rush of the water under the boat as you move the boat forward. Let us show you the power of rowing!
launch driving & volunteers
Launch drivers and volunteers are vital to the organization, both on and off the water. Lauch drivers are at the helm of a launch provided and fueled up by the organization increasing the safety of our crew while on the water.
Learn-to-row Sessions
This is for graduates of the Learn-To-Row clinic and those that are returning to the sport and would like an intermediary level before joining the experienced level boats. Completion of a Learn-To-Row clinic or prior moving seat rowing is required. Sessions are three weekdays in a row from 7 AM to 8:30 AM. Land instruction is included but very little to no land training as we want to maximize water time. Get ready to row!
Coxswains
9th seat, best seat in the boat! A great experience to take command on the water. Both novice and experienced coxswains welcomed.
Experienced Rowers
A powerful way for experienced sweep rowers to start their day; on the water 5:30 AM to 7 AM on high tide weeks. All eight or all four, light to full pressure rowing, steady state pieces, instruction and drills from a coach. Opportunity to learn scull rowing throughout the season; quad, double and singles.
coaches
Coaches share their passion for good rowing with novice to experienced rowers, supporting the rower in their desire whether it be recreational or competitive rowing.
