Little River Marine builds rowing shells for people who row in the real world, not just on protected courses. Wind, boat wakes, tidal chop, long distances, and varied shorelines are part of the experience. Our shells are engineered for those conditions, blending performance, stability, and long-term durability.

Whether you want speed, versatility, or maximum confidence in rougher water, there is a hull in this lineup designed around how and where you row.

Sprint

Confidence-Building Open Water Shell

The Sprint is designed to make open water rowing approachable. Stable, forgiving, and seaworthy, it gives new rowers confidence and experienced rowers a relaxed platform for exploring beyond sheltered harbors. It is light enough to carry solo and simple to set up, making it easy to row often.

Best for: Entry-level to intermediate rowers, skill development, and recreational open water rowing.

Regatta

Lightweight Speed with Open Water Capability

The Regatta is the most performance-oriented shell in the lineup. Built with a full carbon hull and deck, it is light, responsive, and efficient over distance. A narrow waterline keeps it quick in calm conditions, while flared topsides add reserve stability when the water gets rough.

It is easy to transport, quick to rig, and rewards good technique.

Best for: Experienced rowers and fitness rowers who want glide, efficiency, and easy solo handling.

Highlights

• Ultralight carbon construction

Cambridge

Performance + Stability for Bigger Water

The Cambridge delivers the feel of a performance shell with the security needed for open water. A flared hull increases stability as the boat heels, while a wraparound splash guard helps keep the cockpit dry in chop. The carbon hull and internal I-beam structure create a stiff, durable platform that handles distance and rougher conditions with confidence.

Best for: Rowers who want speed but regularly deal with wind, waves, and open water miles.

Highlights

• 33 lb unrigged carry weight

• Quick-release wing rigger

• Carbon hull and deck with internal structural spine

SeaShell Double

Versatile Double for Partners, Programs, and Families

The SeaShell Double combines rugged composite construction with a flexible layout that allows it to be rowed as a double, a single, or a single with a passenger. Designed for durability and low maintenance, it is well suited to clubs, shared use, and rowers who want one hull that covers multiple roles.

Best for: Clubs, partners, coaching, and families who want strength and versatility in one boat.

Highlights

• Carbon hull and deck with foam-cored structure

• Enclosed cockpit and reverse splash protection

• Converts between double, single, or single-with-passenger

Built for Where You Actually Row

All Little River Marine shells share a common philosophy: practical engineering, durable composite construction, and hull shapes that balance performance with real-world stability. These boats are meant to be launched off beaches, rowed in variable conditions, transported often, and used for years.

Choose the hull that matches your water, your goals, and how you like to row.
