    1. Hi Richard,
      Lovely to hear from you. That is a super claim – being the oldest continuously operating club in the US! Thanks for reading my blog – I hope you found something of interest. At this time I am not taking contributions. Keep enjoying your rowing and boat-building. CHeers, Mary
