Carl Douglas Racing Shells designs competition rowing boats and associated fittings, with a particular focus on high-performance sculling equipment. For LBG this is a small-craft sporting discipline, distinct from motorboats and recreational paddleboards.
Purpose-built rowing craft
The company describes high-tech moulded wood-composite shells and hull forms developed for racing. The boat's intended crew and competition role should determine the appropriate shell rather than a generic leisure-boat specification.
Fittings are part of the setup
Carl Douglas also supplies performance fittings and accessories for racing shells. Owners should confirm compatibility with the individual boat and inspect the complete rowing arrangement, including adjustment and replacement parts.
Transport and care
A racing shell requires suitable handling, support and storage between outings. Clubs and individual scullers should confirm the maker's current equipment information and maintenance guidance before buying.
