JUNIOR CREWS PUT THEIR OAR IN The
Henley College Enrichment Programme is an extraordinarily wide offering
of extra-curricular activities. |
 |
|
"Big-Boat Rowing / Sociable Rowing / Whaleboat Rowing" This exciting new activity was launched in September 2007 in conjunction with the long-running Henley College Rowing enrichment and the Upper Thames Rowing Club |
Students said; "Molly is good fun and not too difficult to row compared to fine boats", "More laid-back", "It is easy to use and I feel safer in Molly than I do in any other boat", "You can socialise on the boat, and keep switching spots", "Enjoyed doing the sprints", "It's just good fun! :-)"

 |
With
the kind permission of Molly's owner Geoff Probert, skipper Paul Waterman
helps Henley College students (most of whom have little or no previous
rowing experience) to learn to row, cultivate teamwork, take the helm,
and acquire other nautical skills. |
|
Molly's
design extends the appeal of rowing to those who prefer an alternative
to narrow racing boats, and her
excellent stability allows her to navigate when river conditions prevent
the use of more vulnerable craft. |
