Angus Rowboats

It's exciting watching the first leg of Race to Alaska this morning! There's a race within the race with five of our RowCruisers competing. Currently of the RowCruisers, team Perseverance (Doug Shoup) and Bangarang (James Gibb) are neck and neck in the lead. The overall leading boat is team Rainy in a Rockpool Kayak.

Thanks to Gary Nelson for sending through this great photo of three of our Expedition boats at the finish of the legendary SEVENTY48 race!

I had no idea there were so many Angus boats entered this year. Gary's boat is the one with the beautiful strip-planked deck in the foreground. It's always rewarding to see these boats being used for the adventures they were designed for.

After a little digging, I discovered there were actually five Angus-designed boats in this year's race: three Expeditions, a RowCruiser, and even a decked Oxford Wherry. Not bad!

Congratulations to Gary and all of the other racers for completing this challenging event!

And apparently there are now five of our RowCruisers entered in the Race to Alaska as well—another exciting race we'll be following closely over the coming weeks. Good luck to all the competitors!
