What is Oarbits?

As part of the Online Rowing system, Digital Rowing provides an online club called Oarbits where RowPro users can schedule online rows, create online regattas, view results, and send messages to each other.

Oarbits membership is free to RowPro users. When you get a 20-day free Tryout Key or a Product Key for RowPro, you automatically become entitled to register as a member of Oarbits.

There is no time limit on membership, however if you do not visit Oarbits for over 12 months your membership may be suspended and you will then need to re-register if you want to become an active member again.

As Oarbits is an online rowing club, you will need an Internet connection to visit Oarbits and use its functions.
