Before you hit the water, we have a few things to complete to ensure a smooth and safe experience for everyone. These forms help us ensure a smooth and safe experience for everyone.

All rowers must submit the following forms:
Float Test: To participate in most classes at Mt. Baker Rowing and Sailing Center, you’ll need to pass a quick 10-minute float test. This test ensures you’re comfortable in the water. Here’s what to expect:
- You’ll wear pants and a long-sleeve shirt to simulate real-world paddling conditions.
- For nine minutes, you’ll tread water or simply float.
- In the final minute, a certified lifeguard will throw you a life jacket, which you’ll put on.
The test can be completed at any pool or beach with a lifeguard on duty. Your float test is valid for three years. Contact the Mt. Baker Rowing and Sailing Center office to check the validity of yours.
