The UC Davis crews row out of the Curt
Rocca Boathouse, located in the Port of Sacramento, which is
about 20 minutes northeast from the UC Davis campus via
Interstate 80 (directions below).
Built in late-1993, the 4,000 square feet boathouse was made
largely possible from the fundraising efforts of former Cal rower Curt Rocca,
team members, alumni donations, and the University.

The men's and women's teams have their own bays, each
with racks holding up to 10 shells. There is a area in the
rear of the boathouse allocated for stretching space, ergometers, weights, and a video
playback station.
The Port of Sacramento contains one of the best bodies of
water to row on in California. Crews can row year round in
its relatively flat, endless water, and crews of yesteryear
will recall the notorious Rio Vista row (a 4+ hour row to
the town of Rio Vista).
