The DeWolfe Boathouse, the newest boathouse on the storied Charles River, has served as the home of the Boston University men's and women's crews since its formal dedication on September 23, 1999.

Named in honor of the grandparents of Boston University trustee Richard DeWolfe, this is the "premier boathouse anywhere in America," according to Terrier head coach Rodney Pratt.

  • Racks that can hold a total of 68 shells. The total inclucdes 48 rigged 8's, 12 rigged 4's, and 8 rigged pairs.
  • Spacious locker rooms for both the men's and women's crews.
  • A team lounge that features display cases for the trophies won by each of the crews.
  • Offices for both the men's and women's coaches.
  • A spacious dock where parents and friends are able to greet the victorious Terrier crews upon their return following a successful regatta.
  • A Hall of Rowing that includes all former Terrier rowers and crew coaches.

Located on the Cambridge side of the Charles River, the DeWolfe Boathouse has an interior and exterior balcony that affords racing fans an excellent view of the Head of the Charles Regatta as well as a spectacular view of the city of Boston and the Boston University skylines.
