Expedition Rowboat Documentary Featured in Adventure Travel Film Festival

by Angus Rowboats

We’re happy to see that Julie and Colin's documentary Rowed Trip is featured in the 2017 Adventure Travel Film Festival. Rowed Trip documented their seven-month rowing and cycling journey from the top of Scotland to Syria.

On this journey they used two Expedition Rowboats and voyaged the canals and rivers throughout the UK and Europe. They also carried bicycles and trailers in the Expedition Rowboats and cycled with the boats in tow when they weren't able to be on the water. It was a wild trip, exploring amazing countries along with their own heritage, and it ended in a country that was once beautiful but now is ravaged by war.

The Adventure Travel Film Festival is a multi-day film festival plays in Scotland, England and Australia. The Australian festival is already over but London’s festival is coming up in August and Inverewe’s (that’s in the Scottish Highlands) is in September. This is a topnotch festival with a great lineup of films, speakers, workshops and just a whole lot of fun. So for all our adventurous UK friends, check it out. We sure wish we could attend. Camping out in the Scottish Highlands, amidst other adventure enthusiasts, and revelling in great stories sounds like an awesome weekend. And well, we certainly can't complain about being in London.

Human Powered Achievements through the Northwest Passage

by Julie Angus

At Angus Rowboats, our passion for adventure naturally draws us to the mystique of the Northwest Passage – one of the world's most captivating and perilous waterways. Historically, this elusive passage promised a shorter shipping route, spurring early navigators to fervently chart and struggle through its icy intricacies.

The summer of 2023 saw three audacious teams, including one using our very own RowCruiser boats, aiming to be the first to traverse NW Passage solely by human power within a single season. As the season concludes, we've chronicled these attempts, and catalogued past human-powered endeavors to navigate the Northwest Passage.

Creating a Bookcase from a Boat

by Colin Angus

A good boat is a versatile boat. Our wheelbarrow boat is good in and out of the water. It can be used to haul bags of concrete around the construction site, is a vehicle to go crabbing with the kids, or it can be transformed into an elegant bookcase.

CNC - Cut Kits for Angus Rowboat's Customers Outside of North America

by Julie Angus

Our boat kits are shipped from the PNW, and delivered to customers in the US and Canada. Due to prohibitive shipping costs, we do not ship our boat kits outside of North America. Building from plans is one alternative, however, some would prefer to build from a kit.
