Carbon Performance. Shared Power. Maximum Range.
The Heritage 18 Carbon Double pairs the long glide and carrying capacity of the 18-foot hull with the lightweight efficiency of full carbon construction. Designed for two rowers who want to cover distance with speed and confidence, it delivers a responsive, performance feel in a platform that remains stable and versatile in real-world conditions.
This is a serious partner rowing boat built for fitness, exploration, and shared miles.
Lightweight, Stiff Carbon Structure
The carbon hull and deck reduce weight while increasing stiffness, creating a direct, efficient connection between each stroke and the boat’s movement. The result is quicker acceleration, smoother glide, and less energy lost to flex, especially noticeable over longer rows.
Lighter weight also makes transport, launching, and handling more manageable than traditional builds of similar size.
Stability That Expands Where You Can Row
Despite its performance focus, the Heritage 18 Carbon Double maintains a wide, buoyant hull form.
-
Secure feel during entry and launching
-
Confidence in chop and boat wakes
-
Strong tracking with minimal steering correction
-
Less sensitivity to small balance errors than racing doubles
You get the efficiency of sliding-seat rowing without the constant balance demands of narrow racing shells.
Built for Two, Ready for Distance
Two sliding-seat rowing stations allow efficient, synchronized rowing for workouts and long-distance outings. The longer hull improves trim and glide with two rowers aboard, making it especially well suited to covering miles comfortably.
The spacious interior also supports gear-carrying and recreational use beyond pure training.
Practical Rowing System
The drop-in row station simplifies setup and transport while keeping the interior open when the rowing gear is removed. It’s a performance system built with everyday usability in mind.
Versatility Beyond Fitness
Ideal for:
-
Partner fitness rowing
-
Long-distance outings
-
Lakes, rivers, and protected coastal waters
-
Carrying additional gear for extended trips
It blends range, capacity, and performance in a way smaller boats cannot.
Flat-rate shipping by zone is available across the continental U.S., making delivery straightforward and predictable.
