A High Level of Expectations
Your athletes have worked hard; did the bench pulls, the erg tests, the seat racing. Now it’s time to get them to the finish line in the fastest boat possible.
At Vespoli, we know that boat selection goes beyond choosing the athletes to fill seats in a boat. The brand of boat you choose is equally as important to the success of your program. Crews perform better when they know that the boat they are rowing in will rise to the challenge and give them the fastest ride to the finish line.
“The VHP has really hit the market on the run. The hull is just really solid; it’s fairly easy to row and has produced good performances for us.”
Steve Hargis, Head Coach, USRowing Junior National Team
There’s a reason why coaches have turned to Vespoli for the past three decades for their boats. Since we first built our D-hull boats, we knew we were onto something when crews started turning in winning performances at the World Championships and Olympics.
Through our computational research and on-the-water testing, we can now measure where there is more resistance against the hull and see where and how the resistance changes with each stroke. What makes Vespoli’s VHP series of boats unique is that as the boat goes faster, resistance does not increase as much as it does on competitor’s boats. That translates into a third of a length, or 20 feet over a race course. That’s a difference that speaks volumes, especially in races where hundreds of a second often separate first from third place finishes.
