Full Buck Moon Row

Ultra calm. Velvet soft. Those colors.

The moon, playing hide & seek behind the clouds.

We waited patiently. Eating sesame tahini cookies, sipping a strawberry elixir from @pullingcorksmaine and soaking up all the beauty surrounding us.

Then…the reveal.

My Full Moon Row is an experience like no other.

Immerse in the wonder and magic of this one of a kind offering. August is booked up! Booking now for September’s Harvest Moon. Reserve your seats today!

The Belfast Celtic Fest is coming up July 18-20! And I’ll be offering my Celtic Fest Fireworks Row again this year! It’s a unique way to experience this once a year extravaganza in Belfast and out on the water!

I’ve also added a new offering, also one of a kind, during the Celtic Fest weekend. A Bagpipe Row! Come for a row in my boat while talented bagpiper Sally Jones serenades us with traditional tunes.

Sally and her family (and her pipes) joined me for a Solstice Row in June and I can tell you, it was an unforgettable experience, rowing in my dory while Sally played her pipes.

How more Belfast can you get?

One session only for each of these special rows :

Fireworks Row, Saturday, July 19 at 8pm. 3 seats available.

Bagpipe Row, Sunday, July 20 at 10am. 2 seats available.

NEW YORK TIMES BABY!

Astonished and honored to be featured in this story about the @maineoystertrail !!

DoryWoman Rowing is highlighted as one of the trail stops in the #midcoast region in this briney tale (really somewhat of an odyssey) written by NYT staff writer Danielle Dowling.

And how about those amaaazing photos? At long last I had the pleasure of having @gretarybus in my boat. She is as nice a person as she is a formidable talent!

READ THE DIGITAL VERSION HERE: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/04/travel/maine-oyster-trail.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

I *think* the print version will be out on the weekend?

CHECK IT OUT!

And YES, you can get Maine oysters on my Sunset Row! And tacos from @dos_gatos_gastropub and scallops from @verticalbaymaine
Please inquire!

And those adorable people on the boat with me? That’s Todd & Veronica Sazera of @vinoliobelfast
THANK YOU to them for sharing their row with Greta! It was quite an evening!

The magic happens right here in #belfastmaine ♥️♥️

Happy 4th everyone! Wow, just WOW! 🎇🙀

THE POGIES ARE BACK!

And with this, QUITE A SHOW!

Though we did not see them jumping last night, the amount of Osprey in the harbor was astounding. We saw probably 10-12, at least! And also several seals fishing. That was a big clue.

Today, July 2, the pogies are officially jumping! The seals are a ‘swimming, Osprey a ‘diving. Plus so many Great Blue Herons and pair of Bald Eagles! What a day! Marvelous. Joyous.

It’s the time of year where every row feels like you’re in a #natgeo story! Come out with me and experience it for yourself!

first couple of clips of Video with me and the seals by @roundhousebelfast ♥️🦭

Guess what we saw on our row today?

TWO HARBOR PORPOISES, A SEAL AND A BALD EAGLE!

Can you tell I’m a little excited?! 😃

Tater’s first #natgeo row!

Many wildlife sightings out in the harbor and bay this week. The marine mammals and raptors are on the prowl for fish!

Come out for your own Nat Geo row! Bring a friend. Bring your pup!
