Boat Club

A boat club is a sports club based around boats, especially rowing and yachting, but also canoeing, motor boats and other small boats.

Famous quotes containing the words boat and/or club:

    “The small force that it takes to launch a boat into the stream should not be confused with the force of the stream that carries it along: but this confusion appears in nearly all biographies.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.”
    —Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
