New at RESOLUTE
Great news!  After having installed Canard Fins on several boats initially used at HOCR with amazing, positive results, we are now offering a Canard Fin as an available option on our all of our sweep boats!

Sweep boats tend to skid when making a sharp turn. To combat this, we precision fit a fin box underneath the bow seat of our sweep boats, especially eights. Then we friction fit insert a small canard fin. The canard fin minimizes that skid so the boat travels in a more direct line, covering less distance and requiring less time to do so.

Canard + RESOLUTE at HOCR
Adrian Ellison, Olympic Gold Medalist and cox for the HOCR record setting Molesey Boat Club, asked us to put a canard fin on his 2015 HOCR entry. (He used it effectively to win HOCR that year, and has won it four separate times in RESOLUTES).

Adrian felt that this substantially aided his abrupt maneuvering when he passed other boats, especially when used in conjunction with our Shark Fin (80% Rudder) and that it also helped him maintain a point during straight sections where he encountered cross winds. 
 
Canard Fin BENEFITS
  • Less skidding when making sharp turns.
  • Boat covers a more direct line and, therefore, travels less distance.
  • Faster on a curving course.
  • Better able to maintain a point on a straight line course, which is especially important when pushed by heavy cross winds.
This is an available option on any new RESOLUTE eight or four and may also be added as a retrofit on existing boats of any age. LEARN MORE

Rowing and...NHL Hockey?

In light of the NHL Capitals' recent Stanley Cup victory, we just had to re-share this gem from 2016. Greg King, our RESOLUTE rep in the DC area, took the Capitals on a team-building learn-to-row adventure on the Potomac in this RESOLUTE 8+. 

We'd like to think the experience gave them the team-building boost they needed to claim their first-ever Staney Cup triumph. :)

To Wing or Not to Wing...That is the Question
Is one rigger better for "stronger" athletes or one inherently more appropriate for novices?  Should hand clearance always take priority when choosing wing riggers vs. Euro?  Making the big decision on which  rigger system to use can be a dicey one with no real "right" answer. Here's our no-nonsense guide to rigger selection.

6 Critical Factors Every Team Should
Consider When Buying a New Boat
Like any big purchase, buying a rowing shell requires some planning and consideration. Each team's rubric of priorities will differ, of course, but there are some factors to keep in mind that will help steer the decision making process. Price tags on shells, whether they are new or used, can vary dramatically. It can be easy to make a decision on base price alone, but these other factors can play a huge role in determining which boat is really right for your crew.
