    I didn't know it was easier to row a boat with your back towards the bow. Basic, yet very informative! Thanks!

      You thought it was easier to row with the flat part of the boat going forward instead of the pointy part?

    I always enjoy a bit of boat rowing when I get the chance, and despite having a bad back the exercise does it good, love it.

    Thanks for the great demonstration with commentary on the run. I was thinking in my mind about how the return row is executed to prevent going back to the starting point each time after a row, and I saw that in action with you raising your oars, made perfect sense.

    I have been thinking about a row boat for about a year now. I think rowing across a quiet lake would be good exercise and very relaxing solitude. Yesterday I took some scrap aluminum to the recycler and there sat a nice aluminum boat! No motor, just the boat. It's about a 12 footer and has places for oars. In my state, no title or registration is needed for a rowboat. It's marked $60.00, I have been thinking about it.
    I'd need to get or make a trailer, fortunately I can weld a bit and have access to a welding shop. I could make my own trailer if need be. I haven't decided yet, but I think I am going to buy that boat.

    I truly enjoy rowing. It's definitely work when the wind picks up but it is easy to figure it out with practice. I have a Mercury 2.5 two stroke and a Yamaha 9.9 four stroke I will probably sell. I will keep my MinnL Kota trolling though as a backup.

    Watch another video. Feathering/ sculling backward, digging the oars to deep. No look over your shoulder to navigate instruction. And your legs and back do the work. Not your arms.
    He hasn’t rowed in years??? He never learned then either.
    Any questions? Message-reply I’ll be happy to help. Been rowing year round for over 30 years. I appreciate him trying to help. But bad instruction is worse the no instruction.

      Hey! I just started rowing on my Seahawk 2 I ordered online. It was quite the learning experience when i got in the water, But getting out was hard. the boat was rocking back and forth and i inevitably fell in the water. Any tips getting out?

      The rubber boats are a little tougher. You can’t bring them to shallow. You might puncture them. A sandy beach is best.
      Get close to shore maybe 2 feet of water stow your oars. Then raise your legs. Pivot, so your legs are over the side and just stand up. The boat will squeeze out from underneath you.
      Just make sure you hold on to the boat so the wind won’t blow it away if it’s breezy.
      Enjoy. B.

    Oh, my God you did seven things wrong.1. You never stand in a boat that small. You get in and sit down.2. You got in backwards and had to turn around in the boat. 3. You place your oars so that the handle is in front of you. You placed both oars with the handles behind you so that you had to move your body to get them in front of you.4. You never bent your knees or used your legs.5. You feathered the oars reversed. 6. You dipped the oars too deep7. Your hands are too far apart. There should be about two inches between the grips.
