Why build a community skiff, on BBC Scotland
(download)
We are rowporty!
We've built Icebreaker & Jenny Skylark, two five person rowing boats, for everyone in Portobello to row for recreation, exercise and racing.
The boats are St Ayles Skiffs, designed by internationally renowned small boat designer Iain Oughtred for the Scottish Coastal Rowing Project. She's part of a fleet of skiffs around Scotland and beyond.
Rowporty is a project of the Portobello Sailing & Kayaking Club. Owned on behalf of the community by PS&KC, the boats are kept in the boat park on the Prom at the foot of Bath Street. We row off Portobello beach and take the boats to regattas across Scotland.
We'd love to have you on board! Click here to get started!
