    Does anyone know where you can row in New Mexico, particularly near

    row on.

    Mark Miller had a rowing club going on a reservoir near Sante Fe. However, he moved to Hawaii a couple of years ago, and as far as I
    know that ended rowing in NM. I believe he does plan to return to
    NM eventually, but has not done so yet.

    Would appreciate if you happen to hear that there is anyone else currently rowing anywhere in NM.


    I have been attempting to find both a shell and appropriate body of
    water. For the first - I have concluded that buying via the net may be
    my only choice. With regards to the latter - the gentleman mentioned,
    Mark Miller, ran a sort of club which used Cochiti Lake. This is a
    man-made lake on the Rio Grande river, just south of Santa Fe and
    equally accessible to Santa Fe and Albuquerque. I have been told that Cochiti is a "wakeless" lake by a local sailboat vendor. Another person
    I know who sailboards likes Cochiti, except in winter. The scenery is
    not as spectacular as Eagle Nest Lake (mentioned elsewhere in the
    thread) but there are plenty of views of mountains.

    May be worth a quick visit to the Facebook Masters Rowing International Group as they often have members who travel and seek to visit another club.
