Although located on the same lake, the Royal St. John’s Regatta (RSJRC) is a separate organization from the St. John’s Rowing Club (SJRC), and we host different styles of rowing. The RSJRC is fixed seat rowing, where every boat has 6 people and a coxswain. Fixed-seat boats are more stable and the seats do not move forward or backwards. Here at the SJRC, we do slide-seat rowing, which can have combinations of 1, 2, 4 or 8 people in a boat and the seats are on tracks with wheels.
