The class will begin with an overview of boat selection, boat handling, maritime rules, trip planning and safety. The class will then head down to the Rondout Creek to launch boats. We will practice rowing in the vicinity of our waterfront with an instructor close by on the dock or in a safety boat. As skill and time allow we will then go for a short row up the creek and view the Kingston waterfront just as someone may have a century ago, from a boat powered only by its occupants.
