To me, surf boat rowing is a beautiful sport.

It is fun to read up its history and stories too. Here is a random passage from Australian Surf Rowers League (ASRL) website:

"There’s an old line about recruiting boat crews. To pick a crew, club members are lined up and have house bricks thrown at them. The ones that don’t duck are selected to row. And for some reason the surfboat crews have always been associated with the larrikin element of the clubhouse."
