The Alden Ocean Shell Single is the most popular recreational rowing shell in the world. It delivers satisfying speed and can be rowed by anyone, anywhere, anytime.
The exclusive hull design is the key. The flared bow lifts the boat over waves and the flat bottom provides stability and speed. The manageable length and hull weight make the Alden Ocean Shell Single easy to transport so you can row where you want to. The dropped stern design eliminates the need for a skeg so it launches easily from a beach. The Alden Ocean Shell Single uses the Oarmaster drop in sculling system. Weighing only 18 lbs, this self-contained sliding seat unit can be inserted and removed in seconds.
Thousands of people row the Alden Ocean Shell Single. They race them at the Head of the Charles Regatta, they tour in them all over the U.S., as well as in far off locations such as the Island of Truk in the Indian Ocean and Bora Bora.
