GlideBoatsUSA is the North American Distributor of GlideBoatsUK and we want to get YOU on the water in a safe, durable, stable, and affordable rowing craft. We also provide online coaching, video tutorials, and in-person clinics so you can get the most out of your GlideBoat experience. Rowing is a lifelong sport that can quickly turn into a passion. Gliding on flat water or turning a point with dolphins and seals following can become very addictive. The boat you row is important, but being safe, having fun, and enjoying the outdoors are paramount.

GlideBoats was formed by rowers looking to provide good quality, affordable sculling boats that could withstand the rigors of frequent use. Thinking beyond traditional rowing boat construction and design, Paul Godsafe founded GlideBoat with these guiding principles:

Simplicity

Avoiding unnecessary complexity makes our boats easy to own, use and maintain.

Durability

Making our boats tough enough to withstand regular use and the associated wear and tear.

Participation

The key to a sustainable future for rowing as a sport and leisure activity is maximizing access to suitable boats. For our part, this includes:

• Affordability - Striving to make our boats great value and cost-effective for individuals and organizations.

• Availability - As all our boats are manufactured and assembled in the UK, GlideBoatUSA is the North American Distributor committed to stocking, selling, and ensuring you have a great GlideBoat experience!

Innovation

As we are not copying anyone else's boats, we are free to exploit ideas in design, materials, and manufacture and challenge traditional approaches in pursuit of continuous improvement.

We want you to enjoy your rowing as much as we do.
