“Over the past few years, we have been
impacted by drastic price increases for
composite materials, production
operational costs and labor,” said Bill
Tytus, President of Pocock Racing
Shells. “We have absorbed some of these
higher fees for over two years but in
order to maintain the quality materials
and workmanship synonymous with Pocock
Racing Shells, a price increase has
become inevitable. We look forward to
continuing to supply universities,
schools and clubs with superior shells
and top level service at a price that
remains competitive in this industry.”
Pocock Racing Shells, the longest,
continually operating manufacturer of
racing shells in the world, offers two
lines of boats in eight, straight and
coxed four, pair / double and single
sculls configurations. The
Hypercarbon™ series is
specifically designed for the highest
possible performance level, while

long-lasting boat designed to serve
athletes of all levels.
