TRY A ROW

Sign up for a trial row - it’s fun, free and no experience is needed. Instruction and lifejacket are provided, and guidance on what to wear is given in advance. Rows start from Port Appin or Linnhe Marine (by Lettershuna) depending on the tides.

Everyone is welcome - it’s suitable for adults, and for teenagers accompanied by a parent or guardian. Come along for a few sessions to see how you like it before joining the Club (we're hoping you'll love it!).

FUNDRAISER FOR A SECOND SKIFF>

We’re fundraising to buy a second skiff to join our original and well-used boat Nellie G, giving us the chance to bring coastal rowing to yet more people from Appin and beyond. Our target is £8000 to buy the pre-loved skiff we have found.
