Over 140 years old, the Madras Boat Club is one of the oldest rowing centres in India and the best-equipped in India, with state-of-the art boats and oars. First started in the backwaters of Ennore, it was largely instrumental in forming the Rowing Federation of India. The club has about 600 members, and actively imparts yachting and rowing skills.
The Tamil Nadu Sailing Association (TNSA) has a range of the best boats: 11 Olympic class lasers, 18 Optimist boats, six enterprises and three Ocean Going Maxi 77 Class Yachts belonging to members. TNSA Tigers walked away with most of the laurels at the National Optimist Coastal Sailing Championship 2008 and TNSA’s sailors turned in a fine performance at the Asian level KFC Langkawi Regatta.
