The WinTech Explorer 30 is a smooth rowing double that has the ability to be rigged for sculling or for sweep. The WinTech Explorer 30 handles rough water with ease, and at only 60 lbs, is able to be car-topped to your next rowing destination.
WinTech’s self-bailing feature is a huge advantage over non-self bailing shells especially where large quantities of water are taken on in rough conditions or even heavy rain. A few hard strokes can quickly eject those unwanted extra pounds. The boat will remain buoyant even when completely swamped.

MODEL A – Full Core Hull – Sandwich construction boats are lighter and stiffer than their single-skin counterparts due to a honeycomb core, making them more suited to high performance use. Although still pretty resilient, a very stiff hull of this type of construction is a little more susceptible to damage from bangs and knocks.
MODEL B – Single Skin Hull – Single-skin construction boats tend to be hard-wearing with a little ‘give’ in the hull which helps absorb the odd knock in the boathouse or while being transported. They are a little heavier, but are ideal for novice crews and general club use where the boats are likely to take some general punishment, but still perform when needed.
