Dear Friends, Neighbours, and Local Businesses,
We’re thrilled to invite you to an Open House at Whitehall Rowing & Sail on Saturday, February 21, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, at 85 Dallas Road, Victoria.
Join us for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at our workshop and discover what small, local boatbuilding and manufacturing really looks like. You’ll have the chance to tour the factory, meet the makers, and learn more about the craft we’ve been proud to practice here in Victoria for over 35 years.
Enjoy light snacks while you mingle, plus all attendees will be entered to win a private rowing lesson and 5 hours credit at our Oak Bay Row Club, worth over $300!
Bring your family, friends, and colleagues. We’d love to welcome the community in and share what we’ve been building all these years.
Please see the attached flyer for more details. We look forward to seeing you!
Best,Marie Hutchinson, Harold Aune and Crew

Diana Lesieur just finished a rowing lesson at the Inner Harbour WSRC of Victoria when some unexpected guests showed up! 🐳 5 Orcas, 3 females, a male and a baby spent half an hour cruising the Inner Harbour and they even ventured under the Johnston St. Bridge. We had just pulled the Whitehall Boat on the Club docks otherwise we would have been rowing with them! 🚣‍♀️

So nice to row a seaworthy boat that is actually beachable!

A beautiful shot by Jeff Prestmo of his Solo 14 pulled out on the beach with the Gulf Islands off in the distance. An Open Water rowing paradise ...
