Herne Bay Amateur Rowing Club
Founded in 1887 and still a thriving coastal club, training all year and competing at coastal regattas throughout Kent and Sussex each summer.
It was like a pond out there this morning! We managed to get 21 rowers out on the water all practicing for the exciting regatta season ahead.
