HUBC rows on the river Hull and rows out of the Hull Rowing Club Boathouse. Most members are introduced to the boathouse and given a safety talk within the first two weeks of joining. Subsequently, water training can commence.
For all members signing up within fresher’s week the committee will arrange for everyone to meet at the Student’s Union. On this occasion, we will walk groups to the boathouse and deliver the necessary safety talk.
