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.

Maritime Festival yesterday

Quite an amazing day on the John Magnus yesterday.    It always amazes me how I can throw a group of novices in this boat and after 10 minutes of instruction be rowing on the creek. Fifteen minutes later and they are rowing with a sweet cadence in this forgiving, balanced boat. A mile and a half to the light house (note the beautiful Solaris in the background) and even the waves bucking the hull does not faze the rowers comforted by the stable two hundred plus year design of this workhorse of a boat. Row the Magnus! You don’t know what you are missingwhitehall at lighthouse w linda seekamp!
