“It was one of the hardest but also one of the most rewarding experiences. You’re waking up at 4 a.m. You’re rowing in all conditions, in rain as long as there’s no lightning, in snow as long as it’s not icy. When you think about understanding grit, this was it. I was giving my blood, sweat and tears, getting blisters and calluses on my hands while learning about patience, discipline and routine. It was the hardest I’ve ever worked, but I loved it.”

– Ashley “Ash” Pryor, Certified fitness instructor, wellness innovator, former NCAA championship rower, Ohio State.

Great Quotes and Boats

“Coastal boats have crew shell elements — fixed oars, sliding seats and curved oar blades. Lifeguards aren’t taught that, However, a lifeguard knows the ocean, how to navigate through surf, keep a bow into a wave, ride a swell. When it comes to the ocean, it’s all training and experience. Otherwise, it can be dangerous. Thrilling, but dangerous.”

– David Funk, certified coastal rowing coach and Ventnor Beach Patrol captain, South Jersey Lifeguard Championships (Nine time champion).
