Rowcave Ambassador Will Satch introduces Rowcave at the Head of the Charles

Rowcave is proud to have launched at Head of the Charles 2022. For the event, Rowcave has created the Charles River course, replicating boat houses, foliage, apartment buildings and more.

In partnership with RP3 Rowing, Rowcave provided a warm-up station for athletes competing across the weekend, giving them the best possible preparation for their races on the water.

We were joined by elite teams such as Leander Club, the US National Team and many more who went on to have great success at their respective events.

We also opened the the stand to other event goers, allowing them to race for the best time in teams of up to eight.

After using rowcave, I can't go back to staring at a Concept2 monitor. I'm faster and more prepared when I race on the water.
