Coastal Rowing

At RGYC we are very fortunate to have two St Ayles Skiffs which we use for both competing and social rows; Spirit of Ashton and Angela of Ashton. 

Benefits of Coastal Rowing

Coastal rowing offers a wide range of benefits for physical health, mental wellbeing, and community connection. It is an inclusive, low-impact activity suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels. Rowing engages approximately 86% of the body’s muscles, including legs, core, back, arms, and shoulders, making it a highly efficient total-body exercise.

Social Rowing

Members enjoy the social aspect of rowing as they row around the bay, across to Dunoon and Kilcreggan for longer rows and this year we took the skiffs to Largs for a row around Cumbrae.

Regattas

Through participation in many regattas we meet other rowers from near and far. We compete in a range of age categories, both locally and also in the World Championships, which took place in Stranraer.

Sponsorship

We have been very fortunate to once again receive sponsorship from BEE Kip who funded our kit for the World Championships and made a donation towards a fabulous gazebo.

 

We are also grateful to James Watt Dock Marina who support us in our renovation projects. Click on the links below to visit our sponsors:
