The History of New Zealand Rowing A NEW ZEALAND SPORTING SUCCESS STORY A BRIEF OUTLINE THE ORIGINS Ever since the first people set foot in Aotearoa, water has been one of the most important transport resources. The mighty Waka, Tiwai, moved people and goods around our shores for hundreds of years. The arrival of the European (1830 - 1860) saw the introduction of a wide variety of sailing and human powered craft. The earliest form of racing recorded was in whaleboats. These boats were of broad beam and clinker built. They were powered by upto 12 oarsmen sitting two abreast in the boat. It was popular throughout the country and is considered the forerunner of the sport of rowing in this country. The first Rowing club to be officially formed is considered to be the CanterburyRowing Club in Christchurch in 1861.(There seems to be much conflicting evidence on this point - even the date varies between 1861 and 1868) Many whaling ships still visited New Zealand harbours and whale boat racing continued, often involving high stakes, for many years regattas were open to both amateurs and professionals. This uneasy alliance continued until 1887. Other rowing clubs had developed by this time, so on March 16th 1887 at the instigation of William Fitzgerald of the Star Boat Club, Wellingtonrepresentatives of 9 Clubs formed the New Zealand Amateur Rowing Association.The first Patron was Sir W.F.D.Jervois, J.O.James of Christchurch was the first President and A.G.Biss of Wellington was the Secretary.
