About The Rondout Rower

Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, a Pisces, Nelsie Aybar-Grau not only enjoyed swimming in the Caribbean Sea but she has enjoyed travels that have brought her in close contact to the waters of the Thames, the Seine, the Yangtse, the Amazon, the Mississippi, the Hudson and the Harlem Rivers. Although she enjoyed swimming she had never pursued athletics in any serious way. After a career in computer programming for Wall Street area financial institutions she moved into the Hudson Valley upstate New York area. Then at 60 years of age as a favor to a friend she started photographing the Rondout Creek and the rowers in the Rondout Rowing Club. After four years of rowing both on land and water she became president of the rowing club from 2014 to 2017. Rowing has changed her life. Living steps away from the Rondout Creek has brought her closer to nature and the meditative rejuvenation that it provides.

A FANTASTIC STORY!

By Stephen Walker, the guy who convinced me to buy the EDON TS515 row boats:

“
Here is an example of what is achievable if you only try. I set a goal of attending the World Rowing Masters Regatta in Budapest this year, 2019, with Ewa Marcinkowska. She started in a Nordic Explorer, https://ahoy-boats.biz/nordic, graduated to a TS515 Training Scull with stabilisers, https://ahoy-boats.biz/TS515/ and then moved on to fine boats. You have to be in it to win it. Ewa had never rowed nor sculled before meeting me so it was a steep learning curve for her. But we made it and we didn’t come last 🙂 The journey is more important than the destination. In fact the journey IS the destination. Check out https://scullingacademy.com and invest in my book, How to Win – The Sports Competitor’s Guide to Success, which is available through Amazon.”
