Durham Boat Company, Inc. was
formed in 1981 to supply high
performance, high quality rowing
and sculling equipment and
related sculling instruction for
easy entry into the sport of
rowing. Our convenient location
on the water allows a customer
to try products before buying
and the DBC Sculling School
provides world-class instruction.
From the beginning, our
philosophy has been to assist
the consumer in making an
informed decision as to what
level to enter the sport and as
to what type of equipment to
buy. We try to explain the
features of various types of
equipment available and to
answer all questions such as:
How to rig a boat; what length
oar and blade shape should be
used; what type of training
program to employ; how to best
utilize the training devices
available; etc. From beginners
to elite rowers, the Durham Boat
Company staff can offer valuable
advice and instruction.
We have always been keenly
interested in providing state-of-the-art
rowing equipment to the athletes
in our club, while gaining
valuable feedback from the
coaches and club members on
equipment performance, tested in
the harshest of environments
(i.e., salt water).
For the past 16 years we have
been building a core competency
in the area of carbon prepreg
manufacturing. Durham Boat
Company has made its mark, as
the manufacturer of the premium
Dreher oars and sculls. The
emphasis has always been on
quality and performance coupled
with innovative designs and
design features. We followed
that success with Dreher carbon
rigging components (i.e., carbon
riggers, foot stretchers, seats
and fins). Durham Boat Company,
Inc. is currently a key OEM
supplier of carbon components to
racing shell manufacturers
worldwide.
Still Durham Boat Company, Inc.
continues to provide the highest
quality boats and accessories
from around the world. Durham
Boat Company is the North
American representative of BBG
Bootsbau Berlin as well as is
the US representative for CARE
Rowperfect Rowing Simulators.
Dreher Indoor Rowing Facilities
coupled with the CARE Rowperfect
Rowing Simulators provide the
perfect balance of high
performance off-season training
equipment.
We have embraced the increasing
rate of innovation that is
necessary today to stay on top
and have accepted the challenge
to bring you the best performing
and highest quality products in
the sport. |
