Guest Coach Bios:
Michiel Bartman (born in Badhoevedorp, Noord-Holland) is a former rower from the Netherlands, who won a total of three Olympic medals during his career. A member of the Nereus Rowing Club from Amsterdam, he won the gold medal in Atlanta with the Holland Acht (Holland Eights), followed by silver in Sydney (Quadruple Sculls) and silver (Eights) once again in Athens. He also won three medals at the World Championships, bronze in the coxed four in 1994, silver with the Holland Acht in 1995 and silver in the Quadruple Sculls in 2001.
After the 2004 Summer Olympics Bartman retired and he became the head coach for Vesper Boat Club in Philadelphia, United States. In December 2004 he was named Amsterdam Sportsman of the Year, together with fellow rower Diederik Simon.
Starting at Vesper with only a couple rowers he has rebuilt it into a strong team which has now around 25 rowers (men & women, light & heavy). His squad won numerous National and Canadian Henley titles, but also qualified almost every year one or two crews for the World Championships with as one of the highlights a bronze medal with a complete Vesper crew in 2008. His rowers who got selected for the national team have won medals at World Cups, World Championships and Olympic Games.\
