Dundee Corinthian Boating Club

Club no longer exists

From a chance meeting with the Commodore of Royal Tay Yacht Club (formed 1874), who mentioned that his parents met though rowing on the Tay. His father was a member of Broughty Ferry Boating Club and his mother was a member of Dundee Corinthians Rowing Club. Regattas of the time also featured Wormit Boating Club.

According to a set of notes found on a facebook page “Dundee Corinthian Boat Club Memories”, Dundee Boating Club was formed in 1890 with a regatta first held in 1894, Dundee Co-op Rowing Club was formed in 1871, the same year as Broughty Ferry and Monifieth Rowing Club. Dundee Corinthian Boating Club itself is described as being formed in 1923/24 with a committee with the surnames Davie, Glass, Sidden, Duncan, Sutherland, and Henderson (secretary). Broughty Ferry Boating Club is also shown as established in 1923-24.
