Tromsø Roklubb søger stadig efter et bådhus. Vores nuværende opbevaringen af bådene er ikke langtidsholdbar og snart begynder vinteren. Hjælp os!
Vi har allerede forsøgt at kontakte mange ejere af bådhus samt Tromsø Kommune, men uden at få nogen hjælp. Vi arbejder stadig på et par muligheder, men det går lidt trægt.
Tromsø Rowclub is still looking for a boathouse. Our present location for the boats is not ideal and the snow that probably soon arrives will become a problem. Help us!
We have already contacted many owners of boathouses without success. We are still working on a few possibilities, but it is not looking very promising.

Rotur fredag aften
Fredag aften (19. september) var Katrine og jeg en tur på vandet. Der var helt stille og en smuk solnedgang over Kvaløy.
Jeg var også ude at ro torsdag aften, hvor Astrid var på vandet for første gang. Astrid tog det helt roligt og fik teknikken i rotaget på plads efter kort tid.

The first times on the water around Tromsø
We started to row in late July and here is a picture from one of the very first tours, where Katrine and I took the boat from Telegrafbukta up to Hamna and back. It was a splendid day.
A few days later I took Timothy out in a row boat for the very first time. It is Timothy in the blue T-shirt holding the camera and me (Søren) in the yellow T-shirt. As you can see on the mirror-like water surface it was sunny without a wind. Perfect conditions for learning to row. Timothy catches on very fast and with some practice he will soon become a skilled oarsman.
Timothy also took this picture of me "taking a walk" with the boat, as we approace the beach at Bukta, where we put it in the water.

Tromsø Farvehandel støtter Tromsø Roklubb
Robåterne, som Tromsø Roklubb har fået af Bestumkilen Roklubb og Christiania Roklub i Oslo, er alle ældre båter, som har en del slid og skader. Derfor må vi bruge tid og penge på at reparere båterne. Da det allerede har kostet omkring 25.000 kroner at transportere robåterne fra Oslo til Tromsø, så har Tromsø Roklubb en meget stram økonomi indtil videre.
Vi i Tromsø Roklubb er derfor meget glade for hjælpen, som vi netop har modtaget fra Tromsø Farvehandel ved Odd Erik Hagen-Olsen i form af lak og epoxy-lim til at reparere den første af robåterne.
Vi har i løbet af denne uge repareret en knækket ræling, lappet flere småhuller og slebet rælingen helt i bund. Nu er vi ved at lakere rælingen op igen. I helgen bliver båten klar til den første rotur!
Tak Tromsø Farvelhandel!

Time for an update 2
The website has been quiet some weeks, but that is not because nothing has happened. On the contrary, so much has been going on that I havn't had much time for writing here.
I spent the past three weeks organizing and executing the boat transport from Oslo to Tromsø. It was a looong drive and I also had to return the car and trailer to Oslo. I will tell the story later, today I just want to say that back in May I wrote:
"There are two main priorities for Tromsø Roklubb right now.
1) Transporting the boats from Oslo to Tromsø
2) Finding a boat house for the rowing club"
Now we can check off the first and fokus on finding or establishing a permanent boat house.
