Navesink River Rowing
has a long history of successful competition in major East Coast regattas
(see Results).
Recently, master’s level (over 28
year’s of age) singles sculler, Mark Malone won the Danzeisen Cup for
“fastest sculler on the river” at the Cooper River Cup regatta in Camden, NJ. At the 2007 Master's
National Regatta in Tennesse, he won all four races he entered. He and fellow master’s sculler, Bill Scholtz,
also compete together in a double, rowing into one of
the top three spots whenever they race.
Youth rowers Emily Crosby and
Kathryn Lowry took 4th place in the double at the 2006 Junior
National Championships in Cincinnati, Ohio and improved to take the
third place medal in 2007. An NRR girl's quad also qualified for
Nationals last year. (See Recent Events).
While many of NRR’s competitive scullers
row their own singles, the club owns a number of boats ideal for racing,
including:
NRR boats available
for racing or race training
Eight 4Xs—three Vespoli, five Win Tech;
Four 2xs—three Hudson--one lightweight;
one Vespoli
Four 1X—one Vespoli, three Peinert.
NRR competitive
rowers practice during early morning hours on weekdays.
Several crews also participate in early evening and weekend practice
sessions. New competitive crews will be forming in June 2008.
