Are these avaliable at the Boathouse in Mystic? Might want to bring my managers by for some group training.

I once rowed the Blackburn as a member of the crew of the gig "Kittery," a Gardner model built by a local group headed by Danny O'Reilly. We had perfect weather, but man, let me tell you, that is one long pull!

Not as long as it was for Mr Blackburn. Hard to rest when your hands are frozen to the oars.
