"Storm forecast for tonight! And this gentleman's kindly agreed to lend us his boat!"
Vernon Dursley to his family[src]

This rowboat was borrowed by Vernon Dursley from a toothless old man. It was an old rowboat with no protection from the elements.[1]

History

Vernon used it to row the Dursley family and Harry Potter to the Hut-on-the-Rock on 30 July 1991,[1] while taking them on the run from wizards from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, who were pursuing the family with Harry Potter's acceptance letters to the school.[3]

The next morning, Rubeus Hagrid took over the boat and, with the aid of magic, used it to take him and Harry Potter to the harbour, leaving the Dursleys to find other arrangements to get home.[2]
