1946 aerial photo of San Diego Rowing Club's original boathouse in the harbor. The Star of India is in the background. The Excelsior Rowing and Swim Club was founded in 1888 and became the San Diego Rowing Club in 1891. The boathouse was built on pilings and housed the Club for seventy-nine years. The Rowing Club then moved to Santa Clara Point in Mission Bay, and later into Coggeshall Rowing Center at El Carmel Point in the 1980s, also the home of UCSD and SDSU collegiate crews.
