Interested members can form a crew for a specific race at any time during the season. Members should communicate their intent and timeframe to others in the club as early as possible.
FALL SEASON
For large events, such as the Textile River Regatta, New Hampshire Championships and Head of the Charles Regatta, the club will coordinate entry and transportation of the larger, coxed boats.
Doubles and singles should register and pay for their individual events and make their own transportation arrangements. Transportation of smaller boats may be available on the club trailer as space allows.
Masters members pay all costs associated with racing, including uniforms, entry fees, transportation and accommodations. The club tracks the race expenses and invoices racers via email after the season has ended.
Although these larger events take a high level of volunteer commitment, they are tremendous fun. A YRC team tent is set up and serves as our on-site headquarters for all-day food and drink, loaner racing gear, tools, first aid, race packets and schedules. Guests are welcome to join us under the tent!
SUMMER SEASON
The Maine Rowing Association holds a series of local regattas from July through September. The 4-race series includes The Kennebec Row 5K, the Maine State Championships Cow Island Classic, and The Head of the ‘Scog. These smaller, local events are ideal for getting some racing experience, meeting rowers from other Maine rowing clubs, enjoying spectacular Maine venues and great food! All skill levels and ages are welcome. You’ll find the Maine rowing community to be a small, friendly and very supportive group. These fun Maine events have even started to attract rowers and crews from Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Connecticut.
