FRBC Launches New Rowing Safety Video

Fulham Reach Boat Club is proud to announce the launch of a new Rowing Safety Video by Fulham Reach Boat Club (FRBC) — a vital new resource designed to support safer rowing for everyone in our local community, particularly new audiences who may not have connections to the river or the sport of rowing.

We are sharing this safety video with you, as while we know rowers love to make beautiful rowing videos, we haven't seen much done around safety.

We hope we can buck the trend and inspire rowers and clubs around the world, normalise the use of safety videos in rowing, and keep more rowers safe on the water.

This video brings together key safety advice in a clear, practical format, covering essential topics such as the safety position for boat stability, correct use of buoyancy vests, and best practices for hard stops, handling capsizes and emergency situations. Whether a beginner, an experienced rower, or a coach, the video offers straightforward guidance that helps everyone feel more confident and prepared on the water.

Note that this is safety advice specific to Fulham Reach Boat Club and not intended to replace national governing body, regional or club-specific advice.
