The club was founded in 1992.
In 1996 the club secured their first boathouse after moving out of Aberdeen Boat Club's boathouse into what was formerly the base for the RGIT Survival Centre next to Queen Elizabeth Bridge.[2]
In 2012 the club formed University Rowing Aberdeen (URA) in partnership with the Aberdeen University Boat Club so that both clubs could share resources, funding and coaching.[3]
