Award Winning Boat Designer

 WinTech Racing’s Chief Designer Klaus Filter is one of the sport’s most decorated and accomplished racing shell designers. Over the past 50 years, Filter-designed boats have won more international gold medals than any other hull. 

The FISA approved basic equipment for adaptive rowing - shells and stabilizing pontoons - were designed by Klaus Filter to meet FISA specifications. WinTech Racing's manufacturing partner, WinTech Racing Hangzhou Ltd. supplied all the adaptive boats used in the 2008 Beijing Paralympics

Stable Hull Design

Broader beam, shallower hull curve, these shells provide a greater level of stability than their pure racing brethren, but still offer maneuverability and sleekness not typically found in this class of recreational boat.

Unique Self Bailing System

WinTech’s self-bailing feature is a huge advantage over non-self bailing shells especially where large quantities of water are taken on in rough conditions or even heavy rain. A few hard strokes can quickly eject those unwanted extra kilos. The boat will remain buoyant even when completely swamped and the crew has stopped rowing as the design meets and exceeds FISA guidelines on buoyancy.

Customisation

Here at Oarsport we believe that your boat should be exactly that, yours! All boats come as standard with our "WinTech Red" stripe and trim colouring. However, if you would like to customise your boat to match your school, club or university colours please specify at the time of ordering with a RAL code. We will even produce a boat name and ID number so that your boat is ready for the water as soon as you take delivery.
