We row and race traditional six oared Cornish Pilot gigs, and we are the centre of Gig rowing in this area and our community identity is a key factor in both recruiting and retaining people of all ages in the sport. We have made a significant investment in a Gig Shed, and in boats and equipment to deliver successful, sustainable and long-term participation in Gig rowing. We regularly compete in competitions and regattas throughout the South-West and we row Gigs to enjoy competition and have fun. We currently own two wooden racing boats, Defender and Grace; and three GRP training Gigs; Rashleigh, Spirit & Tribute and a training Skiff. Our home and Boat Shed is on Quay Road in Charlestown and we launch and row throughout the summer season from Charlestown Harbour. Due to the prevailing weather conditions, in winter we row weekends only at Caffa Mill Fowey. Please see our Facebook page for regularly updated details of rowing, training and racing.
