Welcome to Angus Rowboats - Kits and Plans for Innovative Designs

Adventurers Julie and Colin Angus have explored more than 40,000 km of the world’s remotest regions using rowboats. They have drawn on this experience to design the most practical recreational rowboats on the market. Rowing is not only the best low-impact cardiovascular sport (tied with cross country skiing), but it is also the most efficient way of propelling a boat through the water. Our recreational rowing sculls are designed to be fast, seaworthy, and capable for multi-day exploration. Angus Rowboats provides kits and plans so you can construct your own high-quality recreational rowing scull at minimal cost.
