Frequently Asked Questions

If you can’t find the answers you are looking for at our FAQs please contact us with any additional questions you may have. Thanks and see you on the water! 

Row on the Go includes a variety of listings used to connect rowers.  Individuals or clubs can post listings related to boats for rent, boats in need of rowers, boats in need of coxswains, and rowers who are available to row.  A step by step guide to posting a listing can be found below in the Create Listing FAQs.

You must create an account to post a listing (boat, rower, coxswain etc), but an account is not required to see the listings available for various regattas.  Just click on the regatta in question to see the various listings others have posted.

  • There are no costs associated with a listing for a rower or coxswain.  There is a cost for listing a boat for rent.
  • “Sellers” (a club or organization with a boat to rent) pay on a “per listing” basis.  After your account is created, you will post a listing with information about the boat you have available to rent. You will then make a one-time payment for that listing. If you, as the “seller” connect with a “buyer” and funds are needed to be transferred, you will coordinate that transaction outside of our platform. At this time ROTG will not be processing payments on your behalf.

You can search for rowing events and competitions by using the event filter tool on our homepage.  You can sort by location, date, or event type to find opportunities that fit your interests.

Just Contact Us and we will add the regatta!

    • Pricing Type & Rate Type – This is where you select the type of pricing structure you are offering. 
      • PRICE – Select this if you have a specific dollar amount you wish to receive for your boat rental.  If that price is non-negotiable, select FIXED.  If the price is flexible, select NEGOTIABLE. From there, enter the dollar amount you want to list your boat in the box next to RATE PER USE. If you want to discuss entirely over the phone, select ON CALL.
      • PRICE RANGE – Select this option if you have a dollar range you want to list your boat.  Select FIXED if the boat must be in that listed range, and NEGOTIABLE if that range has flexibility. From there, enter the low and high dollar amount range you would accept for your boat rental, with the low figure in the left box and the high figure in the right. Select ON CALL if you have a price range but would rather communicate with the buyer directly. 
      • DISABLED – Select this option if you don’t want any pricing included with your listing and all communications with the prospective renter will be handled offline.
    • You are able to drag and drop or upload images of the subject boat that will be included with your listing.
  • Availability Window – This corresponds to the timeframe of when the subject boat can be rented.  If you expect to rent out your boat all day for multiple races or are unsure of your timing, select “YES” under “All Day.” If you know a specific time window your boat can only be rented for, select “NO” and then enter that time and date range.
