AMHS holds Friday nights open for special group rows! If you & a group of friends or your organization are interested in an opportunity to learn about Azorean whaleboats, get in some great exercise, and enjoy being on the water in Clark's Cove, please contact us at azoreanwhaleboats@gmail.com to schedule a special group row.
This is an invitation-only special group row, but all participants should read through the information below. Thank you!
To begin, please sign the 2025 waiver ONLINE ahead of time.
All individuals must sign a joint waiver each year before getting on our boats. If you are not able to complete it online, extra paper forms are located in the lock box at the dock. All coxes will verify passengers have signed a waiver before taking any passengers out on the boats.
An individual can row or sail up to a total of 2 times total (NOT each year) before being required to become a member and pay annual boat dues. (If you have already had 2 free rows or sails in prior years, you are not eligible for any more free rows or sails and will be required to pay membership and boat dues).
**We now have an app that makes it easy to sign up and cancel your open rows! You can download the Wild Apricot (Member) app through the App store
–Check your email (inbox and SPAM) for updates before leaving the house.
-Please be on time, 10-15 minutes early if possible. There is some prepping for the boat before it can be taken out and everyone should be there to help and learn. Leaving on time also maximizes time on the water.
-We recommend bringing a bottle of water, hat/sunglasses, and a pair of gym or boating gloves.
Cancellation
If you are not able to make it to a row or sail that you have signed up for, please provide at least 24 hours notice so that the slot can be filled by someone else.
Depending upon weather conditions and the number of people signed up for a row or sail, the steerer will determine whether or not it must be canceled (typically by 5pm the evening before the row or sail).
Please let us know if you have any questions. See you on the water!
