- As a senior on the 2016 UW rowing team, Melanie Barstow watched hundreds of fans of Daniel James Brown's best seller, "The Boys in the Boat," visit the Conibear Shellhouse to pay homage to the storied 1936 Olympic gold medalists. That inspired Barstow, '16, to pitch the idea of a formalized tour through Conibear. In September 2016, she launched her first public The Boys of 1936 Boathouse Tour.

History is so much better than anything anyone could make up.
Glad to see UW protecting and keeping alive the memory of the Boys and their epic 1936 Berlin victory and the legacies of Pocock, Ulbrickson, Billed and the 9 who brought home the last Gold medal before the 2nd world war.
I rowed at UC Davis, then later on the Charles while at MIT. I now teach yearly at UW and sometimes row at Lake Sammamish. This video makes me proud.
As one of the tour attendees voiced how the story by Dan Brown was filled with so much passion and drive that he and me were so moved.I know many others as well felt the same.The movie if done correctly will be a blockbuster.Can hardly wait for it's release.
I have question... could virtual tours could be done? I would love to hear more stories and history about the boys, the boats and rowing at University of Washington. Thank you ❤️
I CAN NOT wait for the movie-
Will it ever be released? This vid had me tearing up.
The movie? Christmas day this year. You probably already know though- That's going to be a very emotional movie for a lot of people. Me included...
Love the movie! ❤
