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.

Coastal Rowing in Norwalk, CT

Recently I started noticing this other type of rowing and then Rowing Magazine had an article about it. So my trip to Norwalk, CT this morning was important. It’s a two day regatta I wanted to check out (even though I only stayed around 3 hours). I did not get to row one of the boats but I got to enjoy an incredible morning on an unforgettable waterfront. I also go to meet USRowing’s Director of Coastal Rowing, John Wik, as well as a new author of a book on rowing! Wayne Lysobey.
I will go back when I am in better shape and look forward to trying out these incredible row boats!
