“PULLING TOGETHER TO ACHIEVE THE EXTRAORDINARY”

In March/April of 2026, we are raising funds for the club by taking on an ambitious open-sea challenge: rowing from the Isle of Whithorn to the Isle of Man, where we will change crew then head back again on the same day, in our traditional hand-built wooden St Ayles skiff, Ninian.

This is not a race against others, but a test of endurance, teamwork and seamanship.

Over many hours on the sea, our crew of 4 rowers and one cox will rely on fitness, rhythm, trust and determination to cover the miles safely and together. The route crosses exposed waters and demands careful planning, training and respect for the conditions, making it a true reflection of what community rowing is all about.

Every pound raised will go directly back into our club, helping us to:

Make rowing accessible to more people in our local community
Support training and safety equipment
Maintain and improve our boats
Upkeep and maintenance of our boatshed

Our club brings together rowers of all ages, backgrounds and abilities. This incredible challenge represents real community spirit: ordinary people doing something extraordinary by pulling together.

By supporting this row, you’re not just backing this 52 mile journey, you’re investing in community, heritage, health (both mental and physical) and shared achievement.

Thank you for helping us to make the crossing and for being part of our future journey. Watch out for our funding page which will be shared soon!
