20+ years of rowing history in Port Moody
Rowing in Port Moody had very humble beginnings. In 2000, programs began and boats were stored in a small, grassy fenced area next to Rocky Point Pool. In 2002, the Old Mill Boathouse was built, and the rowing club moved in. Today we enjoy a wonderful facility that provides a large, safe indoor area to store our boats, heated changerooms with showers, as well as a spacious area to hold club functions.
Youth, university, and adult rowers have benefited from the programs offered at the Inlet Rowing Club (formerly Port Moody Rowing and Paddling Centre). Learn-to-row participants are taught the basics of rowing and are prepared to move on to either the recreational or competitive program. Recreational rowers learn more about rowing while working on their fitness and enjoying the breathtaking views on the Burrard Inlet. A huge thanks to our sponsors for their ongoing support of our club.
