To make Loonie’s presence known to our competitors, we will be updating our oar pattern. Yes, the founders of Megunticook Rowing had deep ties to Bates, Bowdoin and Colby’s rowing programs and our former oar pattern was a mash up of their oar patterns. Since Megunticook Rowing is now based at the Penobscot Bay YMCA, Bos’n Meredith Currier added their presence and the distinctive red eye of Loonie! Look for these oars to be flashing on the water this spring!
