Train for the Unexpected

🌊 Monster the Loch has a habit of keeping crews on their toes.

That's why the best preparation isn't just rowing in perfect conditions...

It's getting out there when it's breezy.
When it's raining.
When the water isn't perfectly flat.

Every outing builds confidence.

In order of preference, it would probably be:
1) Sweep
2) Sculling
3) Fixed seat (coastal, 4+)

Never done gig or dragon boat.

Thank you.

Why We Love Monster

There's a reason so many crews come back to Monster the Loch year after year.

It's not just the rowing.

It's the scenery.
The challenge.
The atmosphere.
The friendships.
And the stories you'll still be telling long after you've crossed the finish line.

Who's racing this year?
