Rowing was an organized sport in British Guiana. There was a clubhouse located in La Penitence, with swimming and rowing competitions done in the Demerara River close to Stabroek Market. The image shows the rowing clubhouse in 1924 British Guiana.

I was on that pier in February 2024, just behind the Stabroek Police Station. Nothing left anymore of the boathouse. The pier is partly demolished and somebody is renewing it.
