Friday evening is for new members to get out under the watchful eye of club captains Jacque and Medium John. Medium took the photos but I can’t figure out if they are all from the same outing or not, if they are then that was a heck of a change in weather over an hour. …
Beautiful morning in North Berwick today. A mixed crew training for the Cork Ocean to City race put some miles down by setting off from North Berwick to row around Fidra, Lamb, Craigleith and Bass Rock. 13 miles in total, great effort #ReadyForCork [flickr photo=17819981289 size=medium] [flickr photo=17820248389 size=small hspace=40] [flickr photo=17818955690 size=small hspace=40] {flike …
NBRC are sending a St Ayles skiff and a couple of smaller boats to Cork for the Ocean to City race at the end of May. So thought we’d get some practice in with a 10 mile sharpener from North Berwick to Dunbar.

Evening rows can be even more enjoyable, made it out to the Bass Rock tonight to watch the gannets feed. [flickr photo=16481018733 size=medium] {flike id=267}
After a long and windy start to the year NBRC is back on the water at all daylight hours, this is a sunrise row and yes the sun rises at 6:30am, what better way to start your day before pressing your nose back on to the grindstone. [flickr photo=16908504788 size=medium] {flike id=266}
Our regatta this year will be held on Saturday 29th August. We will have races around Craigleith, approx 1.8miles, which takes anything from 18-30 mins depending on conditions of water and crew! This year we’ll be doing the prize giving in the Hope Rooms (where we serve teas) shortly after the last race. Boats entered …
It has to be said a rowing event at Foxlake is definitely a regatta with a difference, especially at the John Muir Winter Festival. For starters the lake has swimmers and wakeboarders; the latter in their underpants apparently for charity, then there’s the running dogs pulling owners along in liquid mud and the cycle races …

Lovely October Sunday morning, NBRC took two St Ayles Skiffs and a Haningfield three seater out to Fidra for a leisurely row where coffee and cake was served in lieu of breakfast.
