Rowing is a section or department of the California Yacht Club.  It features junior and adult rowing.  There are one or two doubles and one quad but mostly everyone sculls in a single.

CYC Rowing offers lessons for beginners, teaching the foundations of rowing and safe boat handling skills.  The goal is to provide a fun introduction to rowing and to build the skills necessary to be a successful and independent rower.  Lessons are open to both members and non-members.  Once cleared on safety procedures and operations, there are two pathways to continue rowing for CYC members.  The first is to use shells from the club-maintained fleet on a first come, first served basis. The second is to purchase your own shell and rent a rack to store it.

CYC Rowing hosts the annual Head of the Marina regatta, a 5,000 meter head race held within the Marina del Rey harbor.  The regatta is held on the first Sunday of November each year. 

There are several GLRF members who row at CYC Rowing so you could call it LGBTQ-inclusive.  Does the rowing program organize teams for gay regattas? No.  But you are accepted as a member.

Community rowing club located in the Los Angeles Marina Del Rey.

The club has 12 boats and offers both recreational and competitive rowing programs. They offer two learn to row programs a year, in the spring and the fall.

The club offers Learn To Row classes twice a year.  There are several GLRF members who belong, and it is a very welcoming club.
