Pete Archer Rowing Center

 

Our boathouse is newly renovated thanks to the vision, generosity and untiring efforts of a core cast of our members.  There are five full-length boat bays housing club shells from singles, doubles, pairs, fours with and without coxswain, quads, and light and heavyweight eights.  We own and maintain an outstanding combination of Empacher, Hudson, Filippi and Vespoli shells for both training and competition.  We have single and double wherries for recreational rowing and training as well as several training singles for club use.

 

Members may store their own shells in the boathouse or in a fully protected outbuilding near the dock.

 

The boathouse now contains two full offices, a boat captain's workshop, and a large multi-purpose room where our twenty plus Concept2 rowing machines and weightlifting machines face the water through large plate-glass windows.

 

The facility now includes a kitchen, large locker rooms, showers and bathrooms for men and women, all up to ADEA standards for accessibility to people of all abilities.

 

The club also owns four coaching launches all tied at the city's new double-width dock, which is capable of launching two eights and two doubles simultaneously.  We also own two trailers for hauling boats to away competitions.  Boathouse access is restricted to current members.

 

The hours are 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., seven days a week.
