HISTORY

Picture
Rowing in Port Moody had very humble beginnings. In 2000, programs began and boats were stored in a small, grassy (and sometimes muddy) fenced area next to Rocky Point Pool. In 2002, the Old Mill Boathouse was built, and the rowing club moved in. 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 (with a fireplace, kitchen and great view) 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 from the Burrard Inlet. Competitive rowers are instructed on how to improve their technique to make their boat move fast, and are also given workouts to do outside of practice times. Many of our competitive rowers have proudly represented our club at provincial, national and international championships.

It is easy to see how a passion for this sport can arise. There is something almost nostalgic about a long, narrow rowing shell gliding silently through the water with spindly oars catching together, perfectly synchronized. Some have called rowing the perfect sport, a balance of power and grace, strength and technique.
