4. Once you’ve mastered the basics you can sign up for full membership for just £60 per year / £5.50 per month. You’ll enjoy access to a wide range of rows including social rows where the focus is meeting people and experiencing our amazing coastline, improver rows which build on the basics and even racing where we compete with other local clubs.
