Boat Maintenance and Log

Welcome back everyone from their Summer vacations. We have only a couple of months remaining in the rowing season.

Boat Maintenance – This is a friendly reminder to make sure to properly take care of the equipment.

  • Always log out the boat.
  • Make note of any damage or repairs needed in the log’s comments section.
  • Use the slings on-site to check the boat prior to rowing.
  • After use, please wipe down the boat both inside and out.
  • Close and open the drain plugs, before and after rowing.

Low Water Warning – The water levels are extremely low and forecast to continue to only go lower during the coming days. Please be extra cautious of your position within the river and stay in deep channels.

Trailer Maintenance – We are planning a work party this coming Sunday, 9/7 @ 9am to paint the trailers and replace the worn cushions. As many of the club teams use these trailers for regattas it’s important to keep them in the best shape possible. Please email [email protected] if you can assist. Thank you very much for your help, the more hands available the quicker it will get done.
