| Part crews and orphan rowers |
We still have a couple of sets left in the Outback Orphan boats so if you have a friend that would like to come along or have not registered yet please register your interest on the Outback Rowing website. We currently have 4 composite boats made up of rowers from a variety of clubs stretching from Canberra to the Tablelands.
Please note that while we will do our best to get everyone in a boat we may not be able to fulfill everyone's wishes.
