  • Rowing Club Study Guide 2016
    ROWING CLUB STUDY GUIDE 2016 This study guide is a reference of topics related to rowing club and was created in collaboration with Irene Lysenko, Head of Training at Great Salt Lake Rowing and Utah State Parks and Recreation ROWING CLUB STUDY GUIDE Before the Row 1. Each club should have a safety committee that will develop and annually review all the safety rules, protocols and procedures. 2. All rowers must be able to pass a swim test, preferably including putting on a life jacket while in the water. Wearable/Safety Requirements 1. When carrying passengers for hire, or leading (coaching) other boats, the Captain/Guide/Coach is responsible for the passengers on their vessel or in guided rowing shells to be in compliance with all PFD requirements. Each vessel may have, for each person on board or in guided boats, one PFD, which is approved for the type of use by the commandant of the U.S. Coast Guard. All personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) must be used according to the conditions or restrictions listed on the U.S. Coast Guard Approval Label. Each Personal Flotation Device (PFD) shall be: . In serviceable condition; . Legally marked with the U.S. Coast Guard approval number; and . Of an appropriate size for the person for whom it is intended. 2. Know that your shell has been designed for flotation. Your boat is not a Personal Flotation Device (PFD); it is an emergency flotation device and your oars are neither a personal or emergency flotation device. All unaccompanied boats must carry appropriate Coast Guard approved PFDs.

  • 2021-Rowsafe
    Introduction Welcome to RowSafe RowSafe provides safety advice to rowers, clubs, competitions and everyone else associated with the sport of rowing. RowSafe is a simple and direct web-enabled directory. The sections contain “Expectations” for various different groups, e.g. Everyone, Clubs, Competitions, Coaches, Regional Rowing Councils, and British Rowing, the list varies a little according to topic. They also contain links to other relevant information. The Approach It is a myth that “health and safety” is all about stopping people from enjoying themselves. RowSafe has adopted the modern safety approach of trying to find the ways in which people can take part in an activity without putting themselves and others at unacceptable risk. We recognise that, in the real world, there is some risk associated with every activity. A little thought can go a long way to ensuring that the level of risk is acceptable. The need for risk assessment is a continuing theme in RowSafe. This consists of thinking about hazards and the hazardous events that they can cause. Risk can be reduced by installing “barriers” that reduce the chances of a hazard producing a hazardous event and by having “controls” that limit the harm should a hazardous event occur. This is explained in detail in the Safety Basics online learning resource. Risk Assessments can be documented and detailed but these should be supplemented by considerations of whether it is safe to do what we were planning to do. We all do this every time we cross the road. Coronavirus (COVID-19) This document does not provide specific guidance related to rowing and coronavirus (COVID-19).

  • The Rowing Shell Racing Boats (Often Called “Shells”) Are Long, Narrow, and Broadly Semi-Circular in Cross- Section in Order to Reduce Drag to a Minimum
    One of the unique aspects of rowing is that novices strive to perfect the same motions as Olympic contenders. Few other sports can make this claim. In figure skating, for instance, the novice practices only simple moves. After years of training, the skater then proceeds to the jumps and spins that make up an elite skater’s program. But the novice rower, from day one, strives to duplicate a motion that he’ll still be doing on the day of the Olympic finals. - Brad Alan Lewis The Rowing Shell Racing boats (often called “shells”) are long, narrow, and broadly semi-circular in cross- section in order to reduce drag to a minimum. They usually have a fin towards the rear, to help prevent roll and yaw and to increase the effectiveness of the rudder. Originally made from wood, shells are now almost always made from a composite material (usually carbon-fibre reinforced plastic) for strength and weight advantages. FISA rules specify minimum weights for each class of boat so that no individual will gain a great advantage from the use of expensive materials or technology. There are several different types of boats. They are classified using the number of rowers (1, 2, 4, or 8) in the boat and the position of the coxswain (coxless, box-coxed, or stern-coxed). With the smaller boats, specialist versions of the shells for sculling can be made lighter. The riggers in sculling apply the forces symmetrically to each side of the boat, whereas in sweep oared racing these forces are staggered alternately along the boat.
