Echo Open Water Rowing Training Center
Little Harbor Boathouse serves as a regional open water rowing training center (OWRTC). Add open water rowing to your training schedule to improve flat water results. You'll experience the difference and enjoy both branches of the sport.
Experienced scullers can take advantage of our premiere location and facility for private shell storage with 24/7 access; training program with Head Coach Brian Chorney and a limited number of OWRTC memberships. OWRTC membership is available to qualified scullers giving access to our small fleet of Echo and Ace Racer Open Water Rowing Shells to cross train for open water rowing competitions.
OWRTC members may reserve and row Echo and Ace Open Water Rowing Shells (proficiency required) by sign-up on a first-come, first-serve basis during non-clinic, demo and event hours. Experienced rowers may row April - November, but please know your skill level and limitations, and exercise good judgment.

Envision a sport that…
Anyone, regardless of gender, age or size, can master
Achieves a cardiovascular/endurance workout while awarding you with a total body strength workout (leave the gym behind?)
Burns significantly more calories per hour than anaerobic threshold swimming, cycling, or running, and also develops balance and rhythm
Is completely non-impact
Can be performed at an easy cruise, at an anaerobic pace that you simply can’t maintain, or at any intensity in between
Feels cooler than running or cycling at the same ambient temperature
Has competitive opportunities if you are so inclined
Can be a moving meditation delivering a sense of peace and power with every stroke of the oar
Is practiced on days when the water is so beautiful and tranquil that you are totally relaxed at the end of the toughest workout
And days when ocean swells and chop add a whole new thrilling dimension
Rowing's totally addictive
Open Water Rowing is totally cool
